Soft and Hard Tissue Changes After Immediate Single-tooth Replacement

Italy30 participantsStarted 2017-10-03

Plain-language summary

A recent systematic review (Lee et al, 2016) reported that placement of a soft tissue graft concurrent with immediate implantation may contribute to the stability of gingival level and the augmentation of soft tissue contour. However, most included studies did not have a control group to directly demonstrate the benefit of an immediate implant combined with soft tissue graft (IMITG) compared to immediate implant alone.The objective of this randomized controlled clinical trial with a parallel design is to evaluate the influence of the connective tissue graft on the buccal bone alterations after tooth extraction and immediate implant placement by means of cone beam computer tomography (CBCT).
