Summary
The aim is to comparatively evaluate the soft tissue volume changes that occur after tooth extraction and immediate dental implant placement using two different surgical techniques. These techniques are: the Socket-Shield technique and conventional immediate placement. The null hypothesis is that the Socket-Shield technique better maintains soft tissue volume after partial tooth extraction and immediate implant placement compared to the conventional technique. From a sample of 20 patients, they will be divided into groups of 10 and will be randomized using the random.org program. The soft tissue volume will be digitally recorded by intraoral scanning before tooth extraction and 6 months later. The soft tissue dimensional changes produced will be digitally evaluated and statistically analyzed.
