Clinical, radiographic, histologic, and histomorphometric comparison of pepgen p-15 particulate and pepgen p-15 flow in extraction sockets: A same-mouth case study

Purpose Although the efficacy of PepGen P-15 particulate has been conclusively demonstrated in two multicenter clinical studies, the effect of a new hydrogel formulation containing PepGen P-15 on bone repair has not been previously demonstrated. Materials and Methods PepGen P-15 Flow contains PepGen P-15 particulate in a biocompatible hydrogel, which provides spacing between the particles. In this case study, bone repair of both PepGen P-15 particles and PepGen P-15 Flow was compared to natural bone in same-mouth extraction sockets. Results The radiographic, histologic, and histomorphometric evaluations showed enhanced bone formation and faster particle resorption with PepGen P-15 Flow compared to the PepGen P-15 particulate. Conclusion The accelerated bone formation by PepGen P-15 Flow may provide faster implant placement.
