Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Periodontally healthy individuals with at least 20 years of age 2. Good oral hygiene (BOP & PlI = 20%) 3. Patients with a failing single tooth in the maxilla and mandible, from second premolar to second premolar 4. At least 50% of the buccal bone plate intact after tooth extraction 5.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome will be contour changes (mm) at the buccal aspect of the extraction site from pre-tooth extraction (baseline) to 5 months later by volumetric analysis.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
• profilometric outcomes (horizontal changes) at screening, T0, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6. • clinical parameters (probing depth, bleeding on probing, plaque index, keratinized mucosa) at screening, T3, T4, T5, T6 by using a dental probe • aesthetic (PES, WES) at screening, T3, T4, T5, T6 by dentist's score • marginal bone level and buccal bone thickness at T0, T2, T3, T6 by radiographic methods •i mplant survival at T3, T4, T5, T6 by observing whether the implant is in place or not • patient-reported outcome measures at T0, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6 by questionnaires • costs at T3, T4, T5 and T6. • need for additional Guided Bone Regeneration at T1, T2. • need for an additional soft tissue grafting procedure at T2. • Dentist's VAS score for ease of treatment for the dentist at T0, T1, T2. • Dentist's VAS for Treatment Satisfaction for the dentist at T3,T4,T5,T6 • Technical parameters at T3, T4,T5,T6 by using USPHS criteria
