Sponsor's own description
This study is conducted A- To investigate that PRF loaded with osteopromotive pharmacological drug can be a great aid in implant rehabilitation, and whether it could be a replacement for the other high price bone graft materials or not. This will be done through: 1. Measuring bone changes around the implant by cone beam 2. Measuring change in bone density around the implants B- Evaluate the effect of statins on osteoblasts activity and expression of various osteogenic products in vitro.
