Healing of the post extractive socket: technique for conservation of alveolar crest by a coronal seal.

Healing of the post extractive socket: technique for conservation of alveolar crest by a coronal seal. J Biol Regul Homeost Agents. 2019 Nov-Dec;33(6 Suppl. 1):125-135 Authors: DENTAL SUPPLEMENT, Di Girolamo M, Barlattani A, Grazzini F, Palattella A, Pirelli P, Pantaleone V, Baggi L Abstract The first aim of the following experimental study was to assess bone changes in the horizontal and vertical dimension when using different socket preservation procedures. The second objective of our work was also to compare two clinical methods of coronal seal's management: an experimental group was treated using the natural extracted tooth; another experimental group saw the use of a provisional resin preformed as a seal technique. In twelve patients a premolar tooth was extracted without elevation of a mucoperiosteal flap and the patients were randomly distributed into four groups. The first and second group was considered as a control groups: in the first, the extraction socket was left with its blood clot and interrupted sutures were applied; In the second, the extraction socket was filled with BioOss Collagen (Geistlich Biomaterials, Wolhusen, Switzerland) and a free gingival graft was sutured to cover the socket. The third and fourth groups was considered as a test group. In the third group, after tooth extraction, for aesthetic reasons, the root of the natural dental element is cut to allow immediate temporary prosthesis. In the fourth gro...
