Abstract:
BACKGROUND:It is an important issue of alveolar ridge preservation after tooth extraction. Because of the limited treatment and geographical conditions, lack of awareness of oral health, many local people in frontier areas in Xinjiang have poor alveolar ridge that is not of timely repair after tooth extraction. Thus, it is important to find a suitable local and efficient way to save the residual ridge, which has a more practical clinical value. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the feasibility of nano-colagen artificial bone used for alveolar ridge preservation in the Kazakh in Xinjiang Tacheng Region, China. METHODS: Sixty-eight Kazakh patients with bilateral extraction from Tacheng region, Xingjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China were selected in a self-controled trial. According to the principle of a minimum alocation imbalance index, the experimental side and control side of extraction patients were confirmed. In the experimental side, nano-colagen artificial bone was implanted; while, conventional treatment was done in the control side. Multi-slice spiral CT was used to scan the regions of extraction interest to measure the relative gray value of alveolar bone mineral density immediately and 3 months after implantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Immediately after implantation, tooth extraction sockets were visible on CT images both in the experimental and control sides; but after 3 months, the extraction sockets became unclear on the CT images, and CT values were close to those of the surrounding alveolar process, but bone tissues were ful of the bone graft area in the experimental side. The alveolar bone mineral density was higher in the experimental side than the control side at 3 months after implantation. These findings indicate that the nano-colagen artificial bone has good clinical achievement in alveolar ridge preservation in the Kazakh in Xinjiang Tacheng Region.
