18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • One edentulous site bordered by 2 teeth needing a dental implant

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Systemic diseases that affect the periodontium
  • Previous head and neck radiation
  • Smoking more that 1/2 pack per day
  • Requires prophylactic antibiotics

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Experimental

Arm Label

Connective tissue autograft

connective tissue allograft

Arm Description

A connective tissue autograft harvested from the palate was grafted onto the facial of a simultaneously placed dental implant and soft tissue thickness was measured at baseline and Time 4.

An acellular dermal matrix allograft was grafted on the facial surface of a simultaneously placed dental implant and soft tissue thickness was measured at baseline and Time 4.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Soft Tissue Thickness Over the Implant
Soft tissue thickness at the facial osseous crest.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is a comparison of implant placed and simultaneously grafted with either autogenous connective tissue or a connective tissue allograft. The objective is to determine the change in soft tissue thickness and determine if a better result is obtained with the autograft or the allograft. The hypothesis is that there will be no difference in soft tissue thickness over the implant between the autograft and the allograft technique.
