Abstract:AimThis study aimed to assess hard and soft tissue contour changes following micro crestal flap‐alveolar ridge preservation (MCF‐ARP) and natural healing (NH) in periodontally compromised molar extraction sites and to analyse the feasibility and need for bone augmentation during implant therapy.Materials and MethodsFifty‐six patients with 70 sites were randomized into two groups at the site level (35 sites from 31 patients in the test group and 35 sites from 29 patients in the control group). Among whom, four … Show more
