Abstract

Following tooth extraction, resorption in alveolar bone results in narrowing of remaining ridge in the extraction site leading to compromised functional and aesthetic outcomes. The overall goal of the present article is to shed light on the importance of the socket preservation procedure in preserving the original bone dimensional contours, while comparing two essential approaches, using non-resorbable high density d-PTFE membranes v/s the non-cross linked collagen resorbable membranes, by assessing the clinical results in terms of regenerated bone volume, postoperative complications and evaluation of keratinized tissue in grafted areas with either one of the above mentioned membranes.
