Research progress on the application of composite bone augmentation materials in alveolar ridge preservation
Alveolar ridge preservation technology can effectively reduce the morphological changes of alveolar ridge after tooth extraction,thereby creating favorable soft and hard tissue conditions for implant restoration.At present,the composite bone augmentation materials used to fill tooth extraction nest are mainly combined applications of various types of bone augmentation materials,and the combination of these materials with autologous blood products,growth factor,collagen,polysaccharide,and enamel matrix derivatives,etc.These combined applications are more significant than a single material in terms of bone formation.This paper reviews the characteristics and research progress of composite bone augmentation materials typically used in alveolar ridge preservation,aiming to provide reference for clinical practice.
