The Vestibular Socket Therapy : A Novel Concept for Immediate Implant Placement in Defective Fresh Extraction Sites

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Immediate Implants
Registration Number
NCT03987646
Lead Sponsor
Nourhan M.Aly
Brief Summary

This article aims to provide a non- staged treatment protocol to placing dental implants in compromised fresh sockets in the aesthetic zone.

Detailed Description

This is a site-specific therapy uses study a slowly resorbing regenerative barrier (shield) to augment any thin or deficient labial plate of bone, enhances the overlying soft tissue quality and quantity at the same time with implant fixture placement using a computer-guided surgical template.

Inclusion Criteria
  • A hopeless single tooth in the maxillary anterior region
  • Sufficient apical bone to allow adequate anchorage/primary stability of the implant

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
radiographic buccal bone height6 months

preoperative and follow up CBCTs are superimposed on each other and buccal bone height is measured in relation to implant shoulder level

radiographic buccal bone thickness6 months

preoperative and follow up CBCTs are superimposed on each other and buccal bone thickness is measure at 3 similar points on both CBCTs and then a mean is calculated

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
final esthetic outcome of soft tissue6 months

Pink esthetic score. based on subjective assessment of mesial papilla, distal papilla, midfacial level, midfacial contour, alveolar process deficiency, soft tissue color and texture. each item is given a score between 0 and 2, where 0 is the worst and 2 is the best outcome. Then, a final score ranging between 0-14 is calculated
