Summary

Twenty-nine patients needing single tooth replacement in aesthetic area were treated by extraction and socket preservation with saddle connective tissue graft between September 2009 and February 2012. Computed Tomography scan were taken at baseline just after the surgery and 3 months later. Long- term evaluation of this particular socket management procedure was evaluated by recalling successfully seventeen of theses patients in June 2016. At this time, a clinical and radiographical consultation was done and Cone Beam CT was taken. Horizontal and vertical bone dimensional changes were then assessed thanks to 3D imaging analysis and esthetic and implants outcomes were evaluated.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Socket preservation	Teeth were extracted atraumatically and without flap release in patients who have received prophylactic antibiotherapy and local anaesthesia. After checking the integrity of the buccal and palatal bone plate, biomaterial (Bio-Oss®) was introduced into the socket. A connective tissue graft harvested from the palate was inserted and sutured in buccal and palatal pouches in order to cover the socket. chlorhexidine spray (0.12%) twice a day and Ibuprofen 600 mg three times/ day were prescribed whereas antibiotics were continued for 5 days. Tooth brushing was banned at the extraction site for 10 days and sutures were removed 10 days after surgery.
