A Comparison between Primary and Secondary Flap Coverage in Ridge Preservation Procedures: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Table 2

Means and standard deviations for plaque and bleeding scores at baseline following phase 1 therapy and at 6 months after extraction and ridge preservation.

Variables	Mean±SD	Median (IQR)	P-Value
Plaque at baseline	16.2±2.2	16.5(3.3)	0.643
Plaque at 6 months	16.0±3.3	15.5(4.8)
Bleeding at baseline	14.9±2.3	14.5(2.8)	0.809
Bleeding at 6 months	15.0±2.9	14.0(4.0)
