Therapeutic Wavelength Nanotechnology Devices in Alveolar Preservation
Sponsor: University of Bari Aldo Moro
Summary
After tooth extraction, a progressive alveolar bone resorption is observed. Alveolar ridge preservation consists of placing a biomaterial within the extraction socket and covering it with a membrane. This procedure helps limit physiological bone resorption, making the soft and hard tissue profile of the edentulous site more prosthetically favorable.

Socket Preservation
After atraumatic tooth extraction, the socket is filled with a xenogeneic bone graft enriched with hyaluronic acid, which enhances biological activity by promoting angiogenesis, cell migration, and early wound healing. The grafted site is then covered with a dermal matrix membrane, providing mechanical protection, stabilization of the biomaterial, and guided tissue regeneration.
