Effect of Crestal Soft‐Tissue Augmentation Prior to or Simultaneously With Implant Placement on Peri‐Implant Tissue Dimensions: Histological Outcomes of an Experimental In Vivo Study

ABSTRACT Aim To histologically assess the effect of the timing of soft‐tissue augmentation (prior to or simultaneously with implant placement) and the type of grafting material on peri‐implant soft‐tissue dimensions. Materials and Methods Mandibular molars (M1, M2, M3) were bilat...

Dimensional Changes of the Peri‐Implant Mucosa Applying a Suture‐Free Wound Closure Using a Healing Abutment Attachment: A Randomised Controlled Clinical Trial

ABSTRACT Aim To compare peri‐implant soft‐tissue dimensional changes following wound closure using a suture‐free healing abutment attachment (HAA) compared to conventional suturing during implant surgery. Materials and Methods Thirty patients who were randomly allocated to the HA...
