Planned research

• Histological and immunohistochemical profile of platelet-rich fibrin.
• Profiling alveolar bone trephine core biopsies, from autogenous sites and those healed by synthetic materials.
• Investigating material properties of synthetic bone substitutes by scanning electron microscope.
• Partial extraction therapies.
• Volumetric analyses before and after socket-shield treatment at immediate implants.
• Retrospective analyses of implant survival at socket-shield sites: ongoing prospective clinical trial, with human/animal histological studies planned.
