Abstract
Following implant placement, a soft tissue barrier will form at the healing abutment connection called peri-implant mucosa. The dimension of this anatomical structure seems to play a key role in maintaining long-term peri-implant and marginal bone level stability. In its early stages, soft tissue healing is a process involving many cellular and molecular events. Enamel matrix derivative (EMD) may improve and accelerate soft tissue wound healing and inflammatory resolution. In the present split-mouth randomized clinical trial, EMD was used to influence the early phase of soft tissue healing around dental implants placed with a single-stage approach into a completely healed ridge. A total of 60 implants were placed in 30 patients (2 implants per patient, one in the test group and one in the control group). In the test sites, EMD was administered around the healing abutment before soft tissues were sutured. Soft tissue healing index (HI) and secondary endpoints (clinical, radiographic, and patientreported outcomes) were measured. Better outcomes were recorded in patients receiving EMD for all parameters. The present results support the use of EMD to improve and accelerate soft tissue wound healing around implants.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry will
publish manuscripts concerned with all aspects of clinical periodontology,
restorative dentistry, and implantology. This includes pertinent research
as well as clinical methodology (their interdependence and relationship
should be addressed where applicable); proceedings of relevant symposia
or conferences; and quality review papers. Original manuscripts are considered for publication on the condition that they have not been published
or submitted for publication elsewhere.
