Abstract

Improved surgical site preparation and implant integration is demonstrated when beta tricalcium phosphate is inserted into extraction sites prior to implant placement. Mandibular first and second molars were extracted and immediate placement of this calcium salt resulted in improved vertical and horizontal bone deposition. These clinical cases correlate with other available evidence of accelerated healing, and dense bone deposition around extraction sites prior to implant placement.
