Background: The present study evaluated the augmented bone around a dental implant utilizing synthetic bone (Sinoss Graft) or xenograft bone (Tutobone Graft) materials. Methods: A group of patients were divided into two groups, based on the graft material used. Group I Patients were treated by placing two dental implants, with guided bone regeneration using synthetic bone material. (Sinoss Graft) and Group II Patients were treated by placing two dental implants, with guided bone regeneration using xenograft bone material (Tutobone Graft). Results: GTR + Xenograft group recorded a higher Osstell measurement than GTR + synthetic bone group. In GTR+ synthetic bone or GTR + xenograft groups; there was a statistically significant different. GTR + xenograft showed a higher bone density than GTR+ synthetic bone group. Conclusion: Treatment of osseous defects using Xenografts in combination with GTR, generally, has significant better clinical outcome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
