ARP with allograft plus synthetic cell-binding peptide P-15 vs ARP with allograft without P-15

Changes in bucco-lingual/palatal width of alveolar ridge (mm) · Adults aged 18 years or older, in good general health (including well-controlled systemic disease), requiring extraction of one or more…

It is very uncertain whether ARP with allograft plus synthetic cell-binding peptide P-15 changes changes in bucco-lingual/palatal width of alveolar ridge (mm) compared with ARP with allograft without P-15 (very low certainty).
