A Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluating Dental Implant Placement in the Anterior Esthetic Zone Using Two Guided Bone Regeneration Techniques: Prefabricated CAD/CAM Zirconia Membrane vs. Contour Augmentation.
Sponsor: Mohammed Mashhout Eisa Anas
Summary
This clinical trial aims to compare two guided bone regeneration (GBR) techniques in patients with horizontal ridge deficiency in the anterior esthetic region. Specifically, it evaluates the use of a prefabricated CAD/CAM zirconia membrane versus conventional contour augmentation performed simultaneously with dental implant placement. The study includes male and female patients aged 20 to 50 years who are in good general health, maintain adequate oral hygiene, and present with a Class I ridge defect as per Seibert's classification. The primary objective is to determine whether the customized zirconia membrane provides equivalent clinical and radiographic outcomes in terms of bone gain and soft tissue healing compared to the contour augmentation technique. Participants will also report their postoperative discomfort and overall satisfaction using a 100-point visual analog scale (VAS), recorded at multiple time points: 1, 6, and 12 hours, as well as 1, 3, 7, and 15 days postoperatively.

Conditions
Interventions
CAD/CAM Zirconia Membrane
A prefabricated, non-resorbable zirconia membrane fabricated using CAD/CAM technology for guided bone regeneration in horizontal ridge deficiencies during simultaneous dental implant placement.
Contour Augmentation
Traditional guided bone regeneration using particulate bone graft and a resorbable collagen membrane, placed concurrently with the dental implant to augment horizontal ridge deficiencies.
