Elamrousy Modified Approach for Socket Shield Technique
Sponsor: Kafrelsheikh University
Summary
The current trial aim was to evaluate clinically and radiographically the changes around dental implants inserted immediately in maxillary anterior esthetic zone using a novel combination of autogenous demineralized dentin graft (ADDG) with socket shield technique (SST) and compared this approach to socket shield technique (SST) alone. The present study included 50 participants, aged 20 to 45, with teeth that needed to be extracted. After Kafrelsheikh University research ethics committee approval, participants were randomized into 2 groups: the control group patients underwent immediate implantation using SS protocol, while the study group patients underwent the same procedure, but ADDG was created using the extracted palatal portion of the tooth; and then placed in the peri-implant gap defect.

Interventions
Elamrousy Novel Approach for Immediate Implant Placement Using Socket Shield Technique
The flapless strategy was used. To prepare the SS, tooth decoronation followed by root splitting mesio-distally. The palatally splitted portion of the root is atraumatically extracted while the intact buccal root portion is kept in place with thickness of 1.5mm.(12) The implant fixture is then placed palatally with 2mm gap distance in between. finally, that gap was grafted with ADDG
