Abstract | ||||
Aim: to evaluate effectiveness of hydroxyapatite reinforced chitosan hydrogel in modulation of osseointegration round immediate dental implant in a randomized single blind control study. Subjects and methods: parallel arm, single blind randomized control clinical trial A total of 20 healthy patients of either gender aged from 20-50 years who are seeking extraction and placement of immediate dental implant for mandibular teeth. Randomly assigned to either test group IMH were injection of chitosan/ hydroxyapatite hydrogel into extraction socket prior to immediate implant placement or Control group (IMC) were conventional immediate implant placement was applied. Clinical assessment of (postoperative pain, infection and swelling), implant 1ry and 2ry stability evaluation and radiographic assessment via CBCT at 3 and 6 months postoperative. Results: Both groups showed significant increase in implant stability from initial placement to 6 months mark where p value <0.001 for both groups, though Group IMH showed a more substantial increase in stability values over this period. Both groups demonstrated significant increases in bone density across all time intervals with p<0.001. Group IMH demonstrated superior outcomes in terms of bone density by the 6-month mark. Conclusion: hydroxyapatite reinforced chitosan hydrogel used with immediate implants provided less patient discomfort, improved implant stability and has positive effect on bone density | ||||
