Conditions

Esthetic Zone, Immediate Implants, Labial Bone Dimensional Changes, Thin Labial Plate of Bone Pre-extraction, With Labial Grafting, Without Labial Bone Grafting

Brief summary

For the dimension of the peri-implant buccal gap, a controversy is present whether complete bone formation labial to the implant. Therefore, leaving the blood clot in the large socket around implants without augmentation is questionable to result in complete bone fill and would not affect the buccal contour collapse. The aim of this clinical trial was to evaluate the labial bone dimensional changes after immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone with & without bone grafting inside the socket by using CBCT superimposition (Fusion) scans.

Interventions

PROCEDUREimmediate implant placement without bone grafting

After atraumatic extraction of the non-restorable tooth using periotome and luxators, osteotomy site preparation will be done & patients will receive an immediate post-extraction implant without any grafting material in the socket between the residual labial bone and implant surface. After implant insertion, the labial bone dimensions of the buccal peri-implant defect will be measured using Automated Voxel Superimposition Method of CBCT scans. All the patients in this study had two scans; primary (preoperative) scan and secondary (Postoperative) scan, with standardization of the exposure parameters. All datafrom CBCT examinations were acquired in a DICOM format which were imported to OnDemand3D ®App software (Cybermed, Seoul, Korea). superimposition of DICOM sets of each patient using Fusion module of Ondemand 3D App software was done.

PROCEDUREimmediate implant placement with socket bone grafting

After atraumatic extraction of the non-restorable tooth using periotome and luxators, osteotomy site preparation will be done and patients will receive an immediate post-extraction implant with placing bovine bone graft (Bio-oss) in the socket between the residual labial bone and implant surface. After implant insertion, the labial bone dimensions of the buccal peri-implant defect will be measured using Automated Voxel Superimposition Method of CBCT scans. All the patients in this study had two scans; primary (preoperative) scan and secondary (Postoperative) scan, with standardization of the exposure parameters. All datafrom CBCT examinations were acquired in a DICOM format which were imported to OnDemand3D ®App software (Cybermed, Seoul, Korea). In order to ensure standardization and reproducibility of the CBCT cross sectional images used in this study, superimposition of DICOM sets of each patient using Fusion module of Ondemand 3D App software was done.
