Abstract:ObjectiveTo histomorphometrically determine the effects of hard‐ and/or soft‐tissue augmentation by applying the early implant placement protocol.Materials and MethodsThe distal roots of the maxillary second and third premolars were extracted in 10 mongrel dogs. After 1 month, early implant placement was performed in the distal roots, resulting in buccal dehiscence defects. Four treatments were then randomly applied: (1) guided bone regeneration (GBR), (2) connective tissue grafting (CTG), (3) simultaneous GBR… Show more
