Tooth Graft of Two Different Particle Sizes in Extraction Sockets
Tooth Graft of Two Different Particle Sizes in Extraction Sockets
The primary objective of the present study is to clinically and radiographically evaluate the
 efficacy of autogenous tooth graft obtained from bone mill and dental grinder to preserve
 alveolar ridge dimensions in extraction sockets.
Accordingly, teeth will be used as a test material to allow for comparative tests after
 processing it in the automated milling system (AMS). The material will be moistened and then
 placed in toto into the extraction sockets to generate particles at settings 1 (500 RPM for
 30s) or 2 (900 RPM for 30s) to generate MS and SS respectively ((SS group; 0.5-0.8 mm) and
 medium size (MS group; 1.0-1.2 mm)).
Inclusion Criteria:

 -  Systemically healthy individuals within the age group of 20-50 years with presence of
 teeth with hopeless prognosis requiring extraction

 Exclusion Criteria:

 -  Medically compromised patients.

 -  Subjects who underwent radiotherapy or chemotherapy in the past 12 months.

 -  Patients having uncontrolled periodontal disease or having an active sinus infection.

 -  Smokers
