NCT05741749

Brief Summary

The primary endpoint of this study is to compare the soft tissue contour changes after immediate implant placement combined to peri-implant socket filling with a sealing socket abutment (SSA) versus a standard healing abutment. The hypothesis is that the SSA better preserves the alveolar ridge profile in the cervical region compared to a conventional healing abutment. The secondary objectives aim to evaluate 3D hard tissue changes, peri-implant bone remodeling, soft tissue health, esthetic outcomes and the patients related outcome measures.
