Objective: To compare the sequential healing at implants installed in a healed alveolar bony ridge or immediately after tooth extraction without functional load. Material and methods: In the mandible of 12 dogs, the mesial roots of the first molars were endodontically treated, the tooth hemisected, and the distal roots extracted. After 3 months, the mesial roots of the fourth premolars were endodontically treated, the tooth hemisected, and the distal roots extracted in one side of the mandible. Implants were placed immediately into extraction sockets (IPIES) of the fourth premolar and in the healed sites in the molar regions. Healing abutments were placed, and the flaps were sutured to allow a non-submerged healing. The time of surgery and of sacrifices were planned in such a way to obtain biopsies representing the healing after 1 and 2 weeks and 1 and 3 months, respectively. Ground sections were prepared for histological evaluation of tissues components on the implant surface and the coronal termination level of osseointegration (M-B). Results: New bone apposition on the implant surface was slightly higher at the healed compared to the IPIES sites, being 7.4% and 4.1% after 1 week, and 67.3% and 65.3% after 3 months, respectively. Old bone was progressively resorbed, from 27.0% and 21.9% after 1 week, to 2.5% and 2.0% after 3 months, at healed and IPIES sites, respectively. M-B was 1.4 mm and 2.6 mm after 1 week, 1.2 mm and 1.2 mm after 3 months, at healed and IPIES sites, respectively. Conclusions: Similar patterns of sequential osseointegration were found at implants installed in healed alveolar bone or in alveolar sockets immediately after tooth extraction. The coronal termination level of osseointegration, that was different after 1 week, was found similar at the 3-month observation.

Objective: To study dimensional alterations of the alveolar ridge that occurred following implant placement in fresh extraction sockets. Material and Methods: Five beagle dogs were included in the study. In both quadrants of the mandible, incisions were made in the crevice region of the third and fourth pre-molars. Buccal and minute lingual full-thickness flaps were elevated. The mesial root of the four pre-molars root was filled and the teeth were hemi-sected. Following flap elevation in 3 P 3 and 4 P 4 regions, the distal roots were removed. In the right jaw quadrants, implants with a sand blasted and acid etched (SLA) surface were placed in the fresh extraction sockets, while in the left jaws the corresponding sockets were left for spontaneous healing. The mesial roots were retained as surgical control teeth. After 3 months, the animals were examined clinically, sacrificed and tissue blocks containing the implant sites, the adjacent tooth sites (mesial root) and the edentulous socket sites were dissected, prepared for ground sectioning and examined in the microscope. Results: At implant sites, the level of bone-to-implant contact (BC) was located 2.6 AE 0.4 mm (buccal aspect) and 0.2 AE 0.5 mm (lingual aspect) apical of the SLA level. At the edentulous sites, the mean vertical distance (V) between the marginal termination of the buccal and lingual bone walls was 2.2 AE 0.9 mm. At the surgically treated tooth sites, the mean amount of attachment loss was 0.5 AE 0.5 mm (buccal) and 0.2 AE 0.3 mm (lingual). Conclusions: Marked dimensional alterations had occurred in the edentulous ridge after 3 months of healing following the extraction of the distal root of mandibular premolars. The placement of an implant in the fresh extraction site obviously failed to prevent the remodelling that occurred in the walls of the socket. The resulting height of the buccal and lingual walls at 3 months was similar at implants and edentulous sites and vertical bone loss was more pronounced at the buccal than at the lingual aspect of the ridge. It is suggested that the resorption of the socket walls that occurs following tooth removal must be considered in conjunction with implant placement in fresh extraction sockets.
Bone remodeling around implants placed in fresh extraction sockets
The International journal of periodontics & restorative dentistry, 2010
The aim of the present experimental study was to evaluate the physiologic bone remodeling in beagle dogs following the placement of small-diameter (3.25 mm) implants in fresh extraction sites. Five 1-year-old beagle dogs that weighed approximately 10 to 13 kg each were used in this study. The third and fourth premolars (P3, P4) were used as experimental teeth, which were hemisected using a fissure bur; the distal roots were removed carefully using forceps. Implants (3.25-mm wide, 10- or 11.5-mm long) were placed in the fresh extraction sockets with the neck of the implant at the level of the buccal bone crest. The dogs were subsequently put to sleep according to the following schedule: one dog 15 days after implant placement, two dogs after 1 month, and the remaining two dogs after 3 months. The distance from the implant shoulder to the bone wall crest was measured at both the buccal and lingual sites. The width of the buccolingual bone crest was measured using a caliper. Assessment...

Bone morphology changes around two types of bone-level implants installed in fresh extraction sockets - a histomorphometric study in Beagle dogs." Clin Oral Implants Res. BACKGROUND: Minimizing crestal bone loss following immediate implant placement is considered the most challenging aspect in implant therapy. Implant surface topography and chemical modifications have been shown to influence the success of Osseointegration. The Straumann(R) Bone Level implant, featuring SLActive surface, has been introduced with the aim of enhancing bone apposition. Similarly, the OsseoSpeed implants from Astra Tech claim to have an enhanced osseointegration. Because of the specific features in the implant design, both companies claim that crestal resorption is minimal with these implants. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the osseointegration and crestal bone level following immediate placement of Straumann(R) Bone Level implant and OsseoSpeed implants in fresh extraction sockets in Beagle dogs. METHOD: The distal roots of the second, third and fourth premolars were extracted in both sides of the mandible. The distal roots were removed using a dental elevator. A total of 60 fixtures were installed in 10 Beagle dogs. Two types of implants were used: Straumann(R) Bone-Level implants, which were 8 x 3.3 mm in size, and Astra Tech OsseoSpeed 3.5 S MicroThread implants, which were 8 x 3.5 mm in size. The histomorphometrical evaluation was performed at the end of 4- and 12-week healing. The implant-bone contact and bone volume percentage were assessed. RESULTS: The bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and the bone volume did not show any significant changes for both types of implants. The OsseoSpeed implants showed 67.4% and 65.3% BIC, respectively, at 4 and 12 weeks compared with 71.7 and 73.1 for the Straumann(R) Bone-Level implants. The bone volume around both types of implants did not differ significantly at both time periods. The crestal bone resorption was observed for both types of implants. The first BIC at buccal side and lingual side of the implants also did not differ significantly for both implant systems. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that Straumann(R) Bone Level and OsseoSpeed implants induced similar bone response after immediate implantation at 4 and 12 weeks. The immediate implant placement resulted in peri-implant crestal bone-level changes for both types of implants.
Immediate implants at fresh extraction sockets: bone healing in four different implant systems
Journal of clinical periodontology, 2009
Objectives: To describe the differences in bone healing, when placing four different implant systems in fresh extraction sockets.Material and Methods: Eight beagle dogs received implants randomly installed into the distal socket of three P3 and four P4. Four-implant systems were evaluated. Each animal provided four test implant sites. All animals were sacrificed at 6 weeks after implant placement, providing specimens for histo-morphometric analysis of bone to implant contact (BIC), bone area, new bone formation, as well as histometric measurements of the ridge alterations.Results: No statistically significant difference was observed among the four-implant systems. The mean BIC % ranged between 58.5% and 72.1%. Bone modelling of the buccal plate was marked and amounted approximately to 2.5 mm, independently of the system used.Conclusion: This study failed to demonstrate differences in the healing pattern after 6 weeks when placing four different implant systems in fresh extraction sockets. In spite of achieving predictable osteointegration with the four implants studied, the occurrence of buccal bone resorption may limit the use of this surgical approach.

Objective: To determine whether the reduction of the alveolar ridge that occurs following tooth extraction and implant placement is influenced by the size of the hard tissue walls of the socket. Material and methods: Six beagle dogs were used. The third premolar and first molar in both quadrants of the mandible were used. Mucoperiostal flaps were elevated and the distal roots were removed. Implants were installed in the fresh extraction socket in one side of the mandible. The flaps were replaced to allow a semi-submerged healing. The procedure was repeated in the contra later side of the mandible after 2 months. The animals were sacrificed 1 month after the final implant installation. The mandibles were dissected, and each implant site was removed and processed for ground sectioning. Results: Marked hard tissue alterations occurred during healing following tooth extraction and implant installation in the socket. The marginal gap that was present between the implant and the walls of the socket at implantation disappeared as a result of bone fill and resorption of the bone crest. The modeling in the marginal defect region was accompanied by marked attenuation of the dimensions of both the delicate buccal and the wider lingual bone wall. Bone loss at molar sites was more pronounced than at the premolar locations. Conclusion: Implant placement failed to preserve the hard tissue dimension of the ridge following tooth extraction. The buccal as well as the lingual bone walls were resorbed. At the buccal aspect, this resulted in some marginal loss of osseointegration.

To assess the healing outcomes at buccal dehiscence defects after 4 months following implant placement immediately into extraction sockets (IPIES) and filled with a mixture of synthetic hydroxyl apatite (HA) 60% and β-tri-calcium phosphate (β-TCP) 40% in comparison with leaving a blood clot. Eight Labrador dogs were used, and an implant was placed immediately following tooth extraction into the distal alveolus of the third premolars, bilaterally. Standardized buccal defects, 8 mm in depth and 4 mm in width at the coronal and 2 mm in width at the apical outlines were created. A mixture of synthetic HA 60% and β-TCP 40% was used to fill the defects at the test sites, while the control sites were left unfilled. Collagen membranes were used to cover the defects at both sides, and a non-submerged healing was allowed. After 4 months of healing, biopsies were obtained and processed for morphometric analysis. A vertical gain in the extent of the bony crest and of osseointegration levels of ...

Aims: To describe the early phases of healing at the alveolar ridge around dental implants placed into fresh extraction sockets and to study whether (i) the dimension of the socket and (ii) a new implant surface nano-topography may have any influence.Materials and Methods: Sixteen beagle dogs received 64 test (new surface) and control implants randomly placed at the distal socket of 3P3 and 4P4. The implant shoulder was levelled with the marginal buccal bone crest. Animals were sacrificed at 4 h, 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks for histological examination.Results: Bone loss occurred at the buccal crest between the 4-h and 1-week healing intervals, being more pronounced at the third premolar site [vertical bone loss between day 0 and 8 weeks 1.1 (0.5) mm]. The corresponding loss at the fourth premolar site was 0.3 (0.5) mm. Test sites containing implants with discrete crystalline deposition nano-particles' surface exhibited less buccal bone resorption than control sites at 8 weeks.Conclusion: Dimensions of the socket influenced the process of wound healing of implants placed into fresh extraction sockets, with more bone loss in the narrower sockets; however, the implant surface nano-topography seemed to have a limited effect in the healing of this implant surgical protocol.
