Overview
Brief Summary
To evaluate socket shield technique either placing implant in direct contact to tooth fragment versus gap created between the tooth and implant.
Detailed Description
Patients with a non-restorable tooth located in anterior maxillary arch was included in this study, patients were divided into two groups, eight implants per group, both groups had socket shield, group 1 will have implant in direct contact with shield, second group had a gap between dental implant and shield. soft tissue stability, bone width and implant stability was assessed preoperatively, immediate and 6 months postoperative.
