Summary

This study is a controlled, randomized clinical trial over about 16-months (active phase). 40 patients in need of replacement of a single tooth with a minimal crestal bone width of 4 - 5mm and suitable for simultaneous GBR (Guided Bone Regeneration) procedure as well as at least a neighboring tooth on its mesial aspect will be consecutively recruited at the Department of Dental Medicine and Oral Health Graz. Volunteers will be screened and eligible subjects will be randomized to two different groups. In group 1 implants with regular neck design (Astra Tech Implant EV C, Dentsply Implants Manufacturing GmbH, Hanau, Germany) and GBR procedure (BioOss® and BioGide®, Geistlich, Wolhusen, Schweiz) fixed with two membrane pins (Hipp Medical AG, Kolbingen, Germany) will be used; in group 2 implants with sloped marginal configuration (Astra Tech Implant Profile EV C, Dentsply Implants Manufacturing GmbH, Hanau, Germany) without bone augmentation are used. The dimension of the bony defect and amount of lingual-buccal bone height discrepancy (max. 5mm) respectively bone width will be evaluated using a 3-D volume tomography (Planmeca ProMax® 3D Max, Planmeca, Helsinki, Finland), which is needed for digital planning (Simplant Planning Software, Leuven, Belgium) of the implant position, length and diameter as well.
