“…During the healing period, the application of fixation devices such as nonabsorbable membranes, metal devices, and screws may probably affect the revascularization of the area by locally blocking blood infiltration and blood supply. Subsequently, removal of these nonabsorbable devices requires reentry operations, which will inevitably increase trauma and prolong the treatment period 10 . In order to overcome these disadvantages, we adopted a modified method of ARP by using autogenous cortical‐lamina anchoring technique (CAT) in the compromised extraction sockets.…”

Objective The objective of this study is to retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcomes of alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) in the compromised extraction sockets using autogenous cortical‐lamina anchoring technique (CAT). Material and methods Twenty patients were treated with ARP in the compromised extraction sockets by applying CAT. Then implant placement and crown delivery was performed. A planned follow‐up was performed by analyzing various outcome measures to evaluate the clinical outcomes, including primary outcome measures [radiographic assessment of residual alveolar ridge height (RARH) and residual alveolar ridge width (RARW)] and secondary outcome measures [clinical assessment of the healing of the soft and hard tissue, survival rates of implants, marginal bone loss (MBL) evaluation of implants, buccal bone thickness (BBT), and esthetic treatment outcomes]. Results Among the 20 patients, 17 were consecutively treated and 3 dropped out after implant crown delivery because of loss to follow‐up. After the ARP, the initial RARH (12.37 mm) significantly increased to 19.29 mm (P < .05). No significant difference was detected in the RARW before (7.92 ± 1.18 mm) and after (7.92 ± 1.18 mm) the ARP, but reduce to 6.99 ± 1.18 mm at the implant placement and 6.64 ± 0.77 mm at the 3‐year follow‐up (P < .05). The MBL at the implant crown delivery (0.13 ± 0.12 mm) significantly increased to 0.31 ± 0.14 mm at 1‐year follow‐up and 0.56 ± 0.23 mm at 3‐year follow‐up, respectively. The bone loss was limited (<1 mm) but statistically significant (P < .05). The BBT at the implant placement (2.53 ± 0.56 mm) significantly reduced to 2.23 ± 0.44 mm at implant crown delivery and 2.14 ± 0.40 mm at 3‐year follow‐up, respectively. The bone loss was also limited (<0.5 mm) but statistically significant (P < .05). Each implant site showed acceptable aesthetic outcome and the average score was 16.4. The incisions healed uneventful in all patients and the implant survival rate was 100% during the 3‐year follow‐up. Conclusion Autogenous CAT was successfully applied to preserve the height and width of alveolar ridge in the compromised extraction sockets.
