Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Chaneg in height of labial (facial) plate of bone	at baseline, 6 months and 12 months	Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)
Changes in gingival phenotype	at baseline, 6 months and 12 months	The changes in gingival phenotype could be assessed at 6 months and 12 months intervals by superimposition of DICOM files on CBCT software.
Chaneg in thickness of labial (facial) plate of bone	at baseline, 6 months and 12 months	Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)
Changes in peri-implant mucosal level	at baseline, 6 months and 12 months	The changes in peri-implant mucosal level will be assessed by superimposition of scanning files of different intervals to monitor the changes in surface area calculated by software.
