Open-Healing Socket Preservation with a Novel Dense Polytetrafluoroethylene (dPTFE) Membrane: A Retrospective Clinical Study

Background and objectives: Non-resorbable dense polytetrafluoroethylene (dPTFE) membranes are widely used for regeneration procedures, alone or in combination with particulate materials. The aim of this work was to examine the efficacy of a newly developed dPTFE membrane in the management of extract...

description Background and objectives: Non-resorbable dense polytetrafluoroethylene (dPTFE) membranes are widely used for regeneration procedures, alone or in combination with particulate materials. The aim of this work was to examine the efficacy of a newly developed dPTFE membrane in the management of extraction socket healing. Materials and Methods: The extraction premolar sockets of 44 patients (20 men and 24 women) were preserved. One group received prosthetic rehabilitation with a fixed partial denture (FPD) (PROS group, N = 19) and a second group received immediate implant placement (IMPL group, N = 25). The PROS group sockets were augmented with a bovine derived xenograft and covered with a newly developed dPTFE membrane prior to FPD rehabilitation. Results: In the IMPL group, socket preservation was combined with immediate implant placement. Before (T0) and 6 months after surgery (T1), horizontal and vertical dimensions were measured with customized stents. No significant differences in alveolar bone loss from T0 to T1 were observed between the PROS and IMPL groups in the horizontal dimension for any tooth type. There was a significant difference in alveolar bone loss from T0 to T1 between the two groups for only single-rooted maxillary premolars in the vertical dimension. Conclusions: The use of the examined new dPTFE membrane consistently led to the preservation of hard tissue in the extraction sites.
