Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 18-50 requiring extraction of posterior molars and immediate replacement with dental implants, with ASA I or II health, and able to comply with follow-up.

Probably not a fit

Patients with smoking, pregnancy, prior implant failure at the site, active infection, or significant systemic conditions may not benefit.

What this trial studies

Two arms compare osseodensification to conventional drilling for immediate molar implant placement after extraction. The randomized clinical arm includes 80 patients from Ain Shams University, with half receiving osseodensification and half conventional drilling, and a sub-division for grafting of the jumping gap. Outcomes include septum dimensions, ridge changes, bone density, implant stability, and patient satisfaction, assessed perioperatively and postoperatively using CBCT, impressions, and standardized clinical measurements. An ex-vivo arm is also planned to further analyze microarchitectural effects. Primary aim is to determine if osseodensification improves primary stability and preserves ridge anatomy compared with conventional drilling.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, patients may experience better implant stability and preservation of surrounding bone and soft-tissue contours after immediate molar implant placement.

How similar studies have gone: Previous work suggests osseodensification can enhance primary stability and bone microarchitecture, but evidence in molar extraction sockets is limited and this study explores that context.
