Abstract:IntroductionThe stability of soft tissue volume around dental implants is an important factor for the final esthetic outcome. The main objective of this study was to compare volume stable collagen matrix (VCMX) versus connective tissue graft (CTG) in the augmentation of soft tissue profiles in single implant sites with a class I Siebert ridge defect.Materials and MethodsTwenty patients (14 females and 6 males) were enrolled in the present study. After implant placement and augmentation of the buccal defect by … Show more
