- Brief Summary
It is unclear what is the best approach to implant site development after tooth extraction when the pathology leading to extraction has damaged the alveolus. The main objective of this study is to assess if socket preservation and/or reconstruction surgery provides a clinical benefit in terms of ability to place an implant in a prosthetically guided position in such clinical conditions.
The PICO question therefore is:
In patients requiring single tooth extraction what is the benefit of socket preservation/reconstruction surgery with respect to spontaneous healing in terms of feasibility and ease of implant surgery?
- Detailed Description
This will be a parallel group, standard of care-controlled, assessor-blind, randomized, multicenter, clinical trial.
The statistical design will be a superiority trial in terms of the primary outcome with reference to the standard of care control (spontaneous healing).
Primary outcome:
Possibility to place an implant in a prosthetically driven position with or without bone or soft tissue augmentation 16-20 weeks after tooth extraction, evaluated at planning with cone beam CT and confirmed at surgery.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Possibility to place dental implant 16-20 weeks The possibility to place a dental implant in a prosthetically driven position (with or without bone or soft tissue augmentation) 16-20 weeks after tooth extraction will be evaluated with a dedicated planning software using cone beam CT data and and digital scanning according to standard clinical practice
Surgeon's confirmation of the ability to place a dental implant 16-20 weeks Confirmation during the surgery of the ability to actually insert the implant in a prosthetically driven position with or without the need for soft or hard-tissue augmentation.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Vertical change in bone height at the deepest point in the socket 16-20 weeks Bone fill of the socket evaluated at the time of dental implant placement as change in the distance between a customized surgical stent and the bottom of the alveolus using a periodontal probe (difference between baseline and 16-20 week healing)
Vertical change in bone height at the crest of adjacent teeth 16-20 weeks Harm to bone of adjacent teeth measured by clinical attachment level loss and trans gingival probing.
Change in keratinized tissue width between baseline and insertion of prosthetic crown 16-20 weeks Soft tissue preservation assessed as millimetre of keratinised tissue as measured with a periodontal probe
Wound healing index 1-4 weeks Early healing assessed with standardized composite healing index by dentist
OHIP-14 1-2 weeks Oral health related quality of life standard instrument (questionnaire) - 5 point Likert scale with greater scores indicating better quality of life.
Vertical change in bone height at the buccal bone crest 16-20 weeks Bone fill of the socket evaluated at the time of dental implant placement as change in the distance between a customized surgical stent and the bottom of the alveolus using a periodontal probe (difference between baseline and 16-20 week healing)
Radiographic bone changes 16-20 weeks Bone fill of the socket measured on routine intraoral radiographs
Need for additional bone augmentation at the time of implant placement (and/or implant uncovering, if submerged healing) 16-20 weeks Need for additional augmentation assessed by the surgeon during implant placement
