Evaluation of Dental Implants Placed in Preserved and Nonpreserved Postextraction Ridges: A 12-Month Postloading Study

Effect of alveolar ridge preservation interventions following tooth extraction: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

“…The list of excluded articles and the reasons for exclusion are available in Appendix . The final selection consisted of 25 articles, for a total of 22 studies (Aimetti, Romano, Griga, & Godio, ; Alissa, Esposito, Horner, & Oliver, ; Araujo, da Silva, de Mendonca, & Lindhe, ; Barone, Ricci, Tonelli, Santini, & Covani, ; Barone, Toti, Menchini‐Fabris, et al., ; Barone, Toti, Quaranta, et al., ; Cardaropoli, Tamagnone, Roffredo, & Gaveglio, , ; Cardaropoli, Tamagnone, Roffredo, Gaveglio, & Cardaropoli, ; Festa, Addabbo, Laino, Femiano, & Rullo, ; Fiorellini et al., ; Guarnieri et al., ; Iasella et al., ; Iorio‐Siciliano et al., ; Jung et al., ; Karaca, Er, Gulsahi, & Koseoglu, ; Kotsakis, Salama, Chrepa, Hinrichs, & Gaillard, ; Madan et al., ; Pang et al., ; Pelegrine, da Costa, Correa, & Marques, ; Rasperini, Canullo, Dellavia, Pellegrini, & Simion, ; Schneider et al., ; Spinato, Galindo‐Moreno, Zaffe, Bernardello, & Soardi, ; Temmerman et al., ; Thalmair, Fickl, Schneider, Hinze, & Wachtel, ). A flow chart that depicts this selection process is displayed in Figure .…”

“…Eight studies did not recruit smokers (Aimetti et al., ; Festa et al., ; Iorio‐Siciliano et al., ; Pang et al., ; Pelegrine et al., ; Rasperini et al., ; Spinato et al., ; Temmerman et al., ), while 10 studies allowed for the inclusion of current smokers (Alissa et al., ; Barone et al., ; Barone, Toti, Menchini‐Fabris, et al., ; Barone, Toti, Quaranta, et al., ; Cardaropoli et al., , , ; Guarnieri et al., ; Iasella et al., ; Jung et al., ; Kotsakis et al., ; Schneider et al., ; Thalmair et al., ), of which four did not report specific data on the distribution of smokers per group (Barone et al., ; Cardaropoli et al., , , ; Iasella et al., ; Kotsakis et al., ). In four studies, whether smokers were recruited was not reported (Araujo et al., ; Fiorellini et al., ; Karaca et al., ; Madan et al., ).…”

“…Out of the 22 included studies, the vast majority ( n = 19) were conducted in a university setting, two were carried out in a private practice setting (Cardaropoli et al., , , ; Spinato et al., ), and in one study, the setting was unclear (Guarnieri et al., ).…”

“…Reasons for extraction were reported in 10 trials (Aimetti et al., ; Alissa et al., ; Araujo et al., ; Barone et al., ; Barone, Toti, Quaranta, et al., ; Cardaropoli et al., , , ; Jung et al., ; Karaca et al., ; Schneider et al., ; Spinato et al., ; Thalmair et al., ) and included a wide variety of indications, mainly crown or root fractures, extensive caries, endodontic failure, orthodontic and periodontal. Regarding socket anatomy, 12 studies included single‐rooted teeth exclusively (Aimetti et al., ; Araujo et al., ; Festa et al., ; Fiorellini et al., ; Iasella et al., ; Jung et al., ; Karaca et al., ; Madan et al., ; Pelegrine et al., ; Schneider et al., ; Spinato et al., ; Temmerman et al., ; Thalmair et al., ), only one study included only multi‐rooted teeth (Rasperini et al., ), eight studies included a mix of single‐ and multi‐rooted sites in all treatment groups (Alissa et al., ; Barone et al., ; Barone, Toti, Menchini‐Fabris, et al., ; Barone, Toti, Quaranta, et al., ; Cardaropoli et al., , , ; Guarnieri et al., ; Iorio‐Siciliano et al., ; Kotsakis et al., ), and one study did not report specific details on this parameter (Pang et al., ). Thirteen studies included extraction sites that did not present significant bone damage (Aimetti et al., ; Araujo et al., ; Barone et al., ; Barone, Toti, Menchini‐Fabris, et al., ; Cardaropoli et al., , , ; Festa et al., ; Iasella et al., ; Kotsakis et al., ; Madan et al., ; Pelegrine et al., ; Rasperini et al., ; Spinato et al., ; Thalmair et al., ), while only three studies reported the inclusion of sites presenting extensive a...…”

Efficacy of collagen matrix seal and collagen sponge on ridge preservation in combination with bone allograft: A randomized controlled clinical trial

“…Anatomical characteristics of the extraction socket such as thickness or loss of the buccal plate can significantly affect the outcomes of the ARP procedure. Clinical studies (Cardaropoli, Tamagnone, Roffredo, & Gaveglio, , ; Spinato et al., ) and systematic reviews (MacBeth, Trullenque‐Eriksson, Donos, & Mardas, ; Wang & Lang, ) indicate that thickness and vertical loss of the buccal plate influence the reduction in the crestal ridge width and height following ARP. In our investigation, the mean coronal thickness of the buccal plate was >1 mm and the vertical loss <2 mm in both groups.…”
