Elamrousy's Novel Approach to Socket Shield Technique

Sponsor: Kafrelsheikh University

Summary

The current trial aim was to evaluate clinically and radiographically the changes around dental implants inserted immediately in maxillary anterior esthetic zone using a novel combination of autogenous whole tooth graft (AWTG) with socket shield approach (SSA) and compared this approach to socket shield technique with xenograft. The present study included 63 patients, aged 20 to 45, with teeth that needed to be extracted. After Kafrelsheikh University research ethics committee approval, patients were randomized into 3 groups: group I patients underwent immediate implantation using socket shield protocol, while group II patients underwent the same procedure, but the shield/fixture jumping gap was grafted by xenograft. finally group III was grafted by AWTG that was created using the decoronated crown and the extracted palatal portion of the tooth; and then placed in the peri-implant gap defect.
