Ridge Preservation After Tooth Extraction Using Cortical Versus Cancellous Freeze Dried Bone Allograft

The University of Texas System (UT)

Status: Completed

Conditions: Tooth Extraction

Treatments: Device: Cancellous FDBA; Device: cortical FDBA

Study type: Interventional

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT01588444

HSC20110039H

Details and patient eligibility

About

The purpose of this study is to compare cortical and cancellous freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA) materials in the preservation of alveolar bone following extraction of non-molar teeth. The primary objective is to histologically evaluate and compare the healing of extraction sockets of non-molar teeth grafted with cortical FDBA versus cancellous FDBA for ridge preservation.
