The Effect of Implant Placement and Simultaneous Soft Tissue Augmentation in the Esthetic Zone Using Either Connective Tissue Autograft or Acellular Dermal Matrix Allograft on Peri-implant Hard and Soft Tissue Healing
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating connective tissue autograft and connective tissue allograft for Edentulous. Completed, enrolled 27 participants across 1 site.
Detailed 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.

Timeline
Interventions
A connective tissue autograft is harvested from the palate and grafted at the site of implant placement on the facial surface.
An acellular dermal matrix allograft (Alloderm, BioHorizons, Inc, Birmingham, AL, USA) is grafted at the site of implant placement on the facial surface.
