About
immediate implant placement versus socket shield approach
Full description
This study was a randomized controlled clinical trial; patients were randomly allocated to two groups: the study group: ten dental implants were placed in the maxillary esthetic zone, implants were placed using the socket shield technique with immediate loading; and the control group: ten implants were placed immediately with immediate loading. Preoperative and 6 months postoperative CBCT were performed for both groups to assess the dimensional changes in the labial bone plates. Implant stability quotients (ISQs), pink esthetic scores and attachment loss were measured at the time of implant placement and 6 months postoperatively.
