Evalution of Human Amniotic Membrane in Extraction Socket for Faster Wound Healing

Abstract

Background: Preservation of extraction site with grafting shall always produce better healing results. Various materials have been used for this process and each material has its unique benefits and properties. Few such materials are Simvastatin, Bone ceramic, oxidized cellulose, bone allograft, etc. In this given study, 10 patients were placed Human amniotic membrane in their extracted socket and the results were reviewed after 7days, 14 days, 21 days, 1 month, 3 month and 6 month. Materials and Methods: The samples are voluntary and those patients with no clinical abnormalities were included. Human amniotic membrane is received from Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai. Ten patients who reported to Department of OMFS were selected for the augmentation procedure. After extraction, the Human amniotic membrane was placed in the extracted socket and secured with sutures. Post-operative visits scheduled after 7days, 14 days, 21 days, 1 month, 3 month and 6 month intervals for analyzing the he.0aling property of amnion in the augmented extraction sockets. Results: The results of this study have shown that Amniotic membrane has proven its effect, as it initiates faster wound healing of the extraction socket. Conclusion: This article shall reveal the effectiveness of the Human amniotic membrane in rapid wound healing of the augmented extraction socket.
