摘要：INTRODUCTION After tooth extraction, the alveolar ridge will commonly decrease in volume and change morphologically. These changes are usually clinically significant and can make placement of a conventional bridge or an implant-supported crown difficult. If bone resorption is significant enough, then placement of an implant may become extremely challenging. Post-extraction maintenance of the alveolar ridge minimises residual ridge resorption and, thus, allows placement of an implant that satisfies esthetic and functional criteria. Recent advances in bone grafting materials and techniques allow the dentist to place implants in sites that were considered compromised in the past. This article focuses on the awareness of socket preservation techniques for implant placement among dental students. MATERIALS AND METHODS This survey was carried between the month of December 2020 to February 2021 among the dental students living in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. This survey was carried under an online platform where the participants responded to their answers.To check the awareness level of socket preservation for implant placement among the dental students, a questionnaire containing 15 questions was prepared. Based on their responses, data were analysed in SPSS (26.0) and the result was tabulated. RESULT We got a result as 88% of dental students were aware of socket preservation. 48%prefer using isograft technique for socket preservation .58% responded as upper anteriors as common site for socket preservation. 44% responded that socket preservation is indicated in case of bone resorption, periodontitis and trauma. 58% prefer using block bone graft as graft material for socket preservation. 76% consider dry socket and loss of graft as complications of socket preservation. Chi square test was done to check association between educational qualifications and awareness level on socket preservation which showed a significant result (p <0.05). CONCLUSION Based on the results it can be concluded that dental students are aware of socket preservation. Seminars and interactive workshops might be useful in creating awareness among dental students who lack awareness as creating awareness about socket preservation for implant placement.
