Abstract

Objective

To compare the peri-implant soft-tissue dimensional changes following guided bone regeneration between particulate (particle group) and collagenated soft-block-type (block group) biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP).

Materials and Methods

This study investigated 35 subjects: 18 particle-group and 17 block-group patients. Cone-beam computed tomography obtained at 6 months post-surgery and optical impressions taken periodically (presurgery, 6 months post-surgery and 1 year post-surgery) were superimposed. The ridge contour changes over time and the peri-implant mucosal thicknesses were measured diagonally and horizontally, and analysed statistically.

Results

The increases in diagonal (1.12±0.78 mm) and horizontal (2.79±1.90 mm) ridge contour of the block group were significantly higher than the particle group during the first 6 months (p < 0.05), however, the contour hardly changed thereafter (diagonal: 0.07±0.75 mm; horizontal: -0.34±1.26 mm), resulting in the 1-year contour changes similar between the two groups. Regardless of the type of BCP, the ridge contour increased significantly over 1 year when the dehiscence defect had a contained configuration (p < 0.05).

Conclusion

The soft-tissue dimensional increases for 1 year were similar between the two groups. The mucosal contour increase was larger when the surgery was conducted in a more-contained defect, and this was not influenced by the type of BCP.
