THE DIFFERENCE IN BONE MINERAL DENSITY BETWEEN EXTRACTION SITE PRESERVATION AND AUTOLOGOUS HEALING WAS ANALYZED BY GRAY VALUE

The International Combined Orthopaedic Research Societies (ICORS), World Congress of Orthopaedic Research, Edinburgh, Scotland, 7–9 September 2022. Part 2 of 3.



Abstract

To analyze the effect of tooth extraction site preservation on bone mineral density 6 months after surgery.

From 2020 to 2021, two adjacent teeth (37, 38) of the same patient were extracted at the same time, and then 37 were selected for site preservation, implanted with Bio-oss bone powder, covered with double Bio-gide membrane, reduce tension and sutured. After 6 months of self-healing, 38 was taken CBCT, and the gray value measurement tool in the software was used to measure the bone mineral density of 37 bone graft areas and 38 extraction sockets.

Bone density was high in the center of the bone graft area after the extraction site, and the density decreased in the adjacent alveolar socket, but the gray value was still higher than 38 for natural healing.

Extraction site surgery can improve bone mass and quality at the extraction site. It is good for implanting.
