Effect of Subepithelial Connective Tissue Graft with Socket Shield Technique

Not Applicable

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Socket Shield Technique Implant Placement; Immediate Implant Placement

• Registration Number: NCT06659081
• Lead Sponsor: Ain Shams University

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to Evaluate of the soft tissue profile changes and labial plate of bone in the anterior esthetic area when using socket shield technique in conjunction with immediate implant and subepithelial connective tissue graft, in comparison to using immediate implant combined by subepithelial connective tissue graft. The main questions it aims to answer is :

* does the socket shield technique better preserve gingival contours and connective tissues, resulting in improved esthetic outcomes?

* Researchers will compare socket shield combined with immediate implant placement and a subepithelial connective tissue graft to immediate implant placement with just a subepithelial connective tissue graft to see if more favorable soft tissue profile changes and better preservation of the labial plate of bone are obtained.

participants will :

. subjected to partially extracted socket with immediately placed implant and subepithelial connective tissue graft.

.subjected to immediate implant with subepithelial connective tissue graft.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Assessment of soft tissue profile around the implant	change from baseline at six months	- Scanning of preoperative and postoperative cast , then Volumetric analysis of soft tissue by Superimposing the scans to evaluate the changes in the soft tissues in millimeters.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Assessment of labial plate of bone around the implant	change from baseline at six months	Preoperative CBCT to measure thickness, height and density of existent labial plate of bone in millimeters at baseline. Then, six months later, a CBCT is carried out to measure the difference between these measurements in millimeters.
