Connective Tissue Graft Versus a Porcine-derived Membrane (Mucoderm) After Immediate Placement
A study testing Dental implant placement, bone and soft tissue augmentation on buccal site in people with Immediate Implants, run by Vilniaus Implantologijos Centro (VIC) Klinika at 1 site in Lithuania.
Trial summary
Esthetic outcome of immediate implant placement in fresh extraction sockets remains one of the biggest challenges in implant dentistry. Recently a method to preserve the peri-implant tissues was introduced using provisional restoration, allogenic bone and soft tissue thickening. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: The Influence of a Connective Tissue Graft Versus a Porcine-derived Membrane (Mucoderm) on the Aesthetic Outcome After Immediate Placement and Loading of a Tapered Dental Implant in the Anterior Maxilla. A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.
Esthetic outcome of immediate implant placement in fresh extraction sockets remains one of the biggest challenges in implant dentistry. Recently a method to preserve the peri-implant tissues was introduced using provisional restoration, allogenic bone and soft tissue thickening. However, the evidence that this immediate provisialisation with soft tissue grafting using different grafting materials results in constantly high Pink Esthetic scores, especially compared to the delayed loading approach is still lacking.
The aim of this clinical trial is to assess the esthetic outcome of immediate temporization of immediately placed and loaded tapered implants in fresh extraction sockets with bone and soft tissue augmentation, using either a connective tissue graft (CTG) or a porcine-derived membrane (Mucoderm) in maxillary anterior sites.
The secondary objectives are to investigate the influence of immediate loading on the success rate of tapered implants and crestal bone levels.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Aesthetic evaluation
Pink esthetic score (PES) according to Fürhauser et al. 2005 Seven variables will be evaluated: mesial papilla, distal papilla, soft-tissue level, soft-tissue contour, alveolar process deficiency, soft-tissue color and texture. Using a 0-1-2 scoring system, 0 being the lowest, 2 being the highest value, the maximum achievable PES is 14. For the PES assessment, frontal photographs will be taken using a digital camera with a flash strobe mounted on a tripod (Canon 350d, 3456×2304 pixel resolution). PES will be assessed at baseline (Final Prosthesis), 3- and 12-month visit.
Measured: Change from baseline, 1 year, 5 and 10 years after prosthetic delivery
Secondary outcomes (1)
Recession of gingiva (REC)
Position of the gingival/mucosal margin - recorded with a periodontal probe from the incisal edge to the margin at the zenith.
Measured: Change from baseline, 1 year, 5 and 10 years after prosthetic delivery

Recently a method to preserve the peri-implant tissues was introduced using provisional restoration, allogenic bone and soft tissue thickening. However, the evidence that this immediate provisialisation with soft tissue grafting using different grafting materials results in constantly high Pink Esthetic scores, especially compared to the delayed loading approach is still lacking.
