Peri-Implant Hard and Soft Tissue Changes After Immediate Implant Placement With Socket Shield and Immediate Restoration Versus Early Implant Placement in the Esthetic Zone
United Arab Emirates42 participantsStarted 2026-03-30
Plain-language summary
This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to compare peri-implant hard and soft tissue dimensional changes following immediate implant placement with the socket shield technique and immediate restoration versus early type II implant placement with contour graft in the esthetic zone. The primary outcome is the Pink Esthetic Score (PES), while secondary outcomes include mid-facial mucosal recession, radiographic vertical and horizontal buccal bone remodeling, and patient satisfaction after 12 months.
