| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Loss of volume between pre-extraction and 8 weeks based on volumetric measurements (by superimposition of the scanned models). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| • clinical condition of soft tissues at 8 weeks • The height of the oral and buccal aspect of the alveole will be measured clinically (at Visit 5). • Thickness of the buccal bone crest, bony horizontal ridge width and dimensional changes are evaluated by CBCT scans (Between extraction and 6 weeks). • A histologic assessment at the implant site will be performed at implant placement (at Visit 5). • Ridge width will be analysed (at Visit 5). • Volumetric changes of soft and hard tissues, peri-implant health as well as implant survival up to five years after crown insertion | — |
