Assessment of Immediate Implant Stability When Adding Mixture of Hyaluronic Acid and Melatonin

Summary

Placing implants immediately after tooth extraction offers several advantages such as preventing bone resorption, maintaining alveolar crest width and height, reducing surgical procedures and treatment time, in addition to good esthetic results. Immediate implant placement after tooth extraction is often associated with a residual gap between the implant surface and the residual bone walls. Osseointegration between the implant surface and the surrounding osseous walls of the extraction socket should increase using materials that promote new bone formation. Since both melatonin and hyaluronic acid are thought to have a positive effect on increasing osseointegration and decreasing inflammation of the tissues; the investigators want to test if adding a mix of hyaluronic acid and melatonin to immediately implant, will give a better implant stability, decreased peri-implant bone loss and decreased post-operative pain versus immediate implant placement without adding any material.
