Role of Hyaluronic Acid in Bone Healing After Dental Extraction

A Clinical and Experimental Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Locally Applied Hyaluronic Acid in Bone Healing Following Dental Extraction

• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 20 (actual)
• Sponsor: Damascus University · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years – 60 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Accepted

Summary

This is a randomized controlled trial with a split mouth design. Patients with an indication of lower dental extraction will be asked to join this research project at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at University of Damascus Dental School. Each patient whose case requires bilateral extraction, one side will serve as an experimental side, whereas the other side will serve as a control. Participants should have symmetric teeth that need extraction in the lower jaw. Hyaluronic acid will be injected following extraction in one of the two sides with random allocation. cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) images will be taken for each participant immediately post-extraction and at six months post-operatively.

Detailed description

I- Clinical examination variables: Buccolingual distance and distomesial distance will be measured for each participant at 2 assessment times: directly post-extraction and six months post-extraction. II- Radiographic examination variables: Linear measurements Vertical bone fill Bone mineral density

Conditions

• Patients With Dental Extraction

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
