Labial Bone Thickness Around Immediate Implants in the Esthetic Zone Following a Novel Socket Evaluation System

Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Immediate Implant Placement
Registration Number
NCT06648135
Lead Sponsor
Misr International University
Brief Summary

The anterior maxilla is a particularly challenging area for immediate implant placement due to its thin buccal bone walls. These walls are more susceptible to resorption after tooth extraction, which can lead to significant bone loss and inadequate support for an implant. However, Different socket dimension may affect the amount of bone formed labial to the implant, regardless of the garfting procedure.

Detailed Description

Bone formation labial to the immediate implant is not related to the initial thick- ness of the labial plate of bone, rather than the initial labio-palatal socket dimension. this study aims to evaluate the bone formed labial to the implant following a Novel Socket Evaluation System.
