What this Trial Is About
The purpose of the study is to compare soft tissue volume changes in terms of volume gain and stability around dental implants and PROMS in cases where a sub-epithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) from the palate, Porcine collagen matrix (CM) or Porcine Acellular dermal matrix (PADM) is used after 3 and 15 months after implant placement.
