NCT03784430

Brief 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).

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • a single tooth to be extracted for endodontic failure, fractures, root caries or resorption in the maxillary and mandibular area from second premolar to second premolar
  • patient in good systemic health, with no contraindication for oral surgical interventions

You may not qualify if:
