- Peri-implant bone resorption
Study Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate clinically and radiographically soft tissue around single-implant crowns and peri-implant bone resorption respectively by using zirconia implants or titanium implants in horizontally deficient partially edentulous ridges.
Detailed Description
Experimental: Main treatment group Zirconia implants will be placed in a prosthetically guided position in horizontally deficient ridges in main treatment group.
Active Comparator: Control group Titanium implants will be placed in a prosthetically guided position in horizontally deficient ridges in control group.

Arms & Interventions
Main treatment group
Zirconia implants will be placed in a prosthetically guided position in horizontally deficient ridges in main treatment group.
Intervention: Zirconia implant (Device)
Control group
Titanium implants will be placed in a prosthetically guided position in horizontally deficient ridges in control group.
Intervention: Titanium implant (Device)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Peri-implant bone resorption
Time Frame: Baseline to 6 months
measured in terms of vertical bone levels present mesial and distal to implant which will be measured by comparing CBCT
Evaluation of the soft tissue around single implant crowns
Time Frame: Baseline to 6 months
Pink Esthetic Score (0-2; increasing scores means improvement in clinical outcomes) is used to evaluate the soft tissue around single implant crowns that might change over time at 3 months and 6 months.
Secondary Outcomes
- Implant survival rate(Baseline to 6 months)
