Immediate Implant Loading After Ridge Preservation Using Autogenous Dentin Graft and Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate

Immediate implant loading requires adequate primary stability and sufficient bone volume and quality. Ridge preservation techniques are therefore critical in maintaining post-extraction socket dimensions. Autogenous dentin grafts have recently gained attention due to their osteoconductive properties, biocompatibility, and cost-effectiveness. This study compares AMDG with a commonly used synthetic graft material (β-TCP) and ungrafted sockets to assess their influence on ridge preservation, implant stability, peri-implant tissue health, and bone quality under immediate loading conditions.
