Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of using topical Moringa leaf extract on healing after delayed dental implant placement in posterior maxilla. Subjects and methods: A total of twelve patients with missing maxillary premolars and molars were involved in this study. They were randomly divided into two groups; Group I (test group; n = 6) patients that received delayed implant placement with the use of topical Kaempferol (Moringa olifera leaf extract) gel and Group II (control group; n = 6) patients that received delayed implant placement only for replacement of missing teeth. Clinically, pain was evaluated for each patient by using visual analog scale (VAS) and swelling was assessed in form of mild, moderate and severe. Assessment of healing progress was conducted by modified gingival index and probing depth at 1st, 3rd and 6th month after implant placement. Results: A statistically significant difference was recorded in VAS assessment for 1st week follow up in both groups (P=0.026), regarding swelling no statistically significant difference between studied groups (P=0.065). Considering the values of modified gingival index and probing depth, the study group showed lower values than of control group during the follow up periods of the study however, this difference was non-significant (P= 0.240) for both parameters. Conclusion: The use of Kaempferol topical gel with delayed dental implant placement offer a new promising natural, safe and effective remedy for management of healing process.
