GroupInterventionDescription
conventional immediate implant (B)implant placement1. Following local anesthetic infiltration opposite to the root to be extracted non traumatic extraction of the tooth or remaining root by periotome. 2. The implant fixture will be inserted in the empty socket by conventional manner. primary closure will not be attempted as the patients will undergo immediate non-functioning provisionization.
socket shield (A)implant placement1. Following local anesthetic infiltration opposite to the root to be extracted the root is sectioned in a mesiodistal direction along its long axis as far apical as possible. 2. After sectioning the root into labial and palatal halves, the palatal half is removed with preservation of the labial root section. 3. The labial half is prepared to be Flushing or 1mm above the labial alveolar crest. Then thinned slightly to a concave contour in an apico-coronal and mesiodistal direction. 4. The implant will be inserted in place of the palatal half with the labial surface of the implant facing the labial root shield (root-implant interface) primary closure will not be attempted as the patients will undergo immediate non-functioning provisionization.
