Two alloplastic materials used for ridge preservation (RP) were tested regarding their superiority in terms of volumetric and linear ridge changes over time.

Methods:

In 16 adult beagle dogs, the distal roots of P3 and P4 were extracted and 50% of the buccal bone plate removed. Ridge preservation was performed randomly using two different alloplastic bone grafting substitutes and covered by Jason® membrane.

Results / Conclusion:
Both ridge preservation procedures minimized the volume loss compared to spontaneous healing. Jason® membrane acted as efficient barrier membrane for ridge preservation procedures.
