Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare two methods of ridge preservation in the maxillary anterior esthetic zone to determine the best method to establish adequate bone and soft tissue to accommodate implant placement. For the positive control group a mineralized cancellous allograft will be placed in the extraction socket. For the test group a mineralized cancellous allograft will be placed in the extraction socket plus an additional graft will be placed to overlay the facial surface of the socket that will be composed of bovine xenograft material. Outcomes will be clinical horizontal and vertical dimensional change and histologic analysis of the graft material at 4 months post-placement.
