This study aimed to radiographically assess the effectiveness of
the synthetic graft (Easy-Graft)™ which consists of [BCP+PLGA] in preservation of alveolar bone after teeth extraction. The sample consisted of thirty extraction cases in 28 patients (
17males 11females) and was randomly divided into two groups; study group (15 cases) where the graft had been applied after extraction and the control group (15 cases). Periapical radiographs were taken immediately after extraction,and six and fifteen months later to measure the amount of bone height decrease. Data were collected by an image analysis software and statistically analyzed. As a result,
the mean bone height decrease in the control group was (0.6mm) after extraction, (2.4mm) after six months, and (3.3mm) 15 months later.Whereas it was (0.14,1.1,1.5mm) after extraction, 6months and 15months later respectively. As such, there were statistically significant differences between the different follow-up times.Thus, (Easy-Graft)™ considered an effective method for alveolar bone preservation after teeth
