A multi-centre randomized controlled trial comparing connective tissue graft with collagen matrix to increase soft tissue thickness at the buccal aspect of single implants: 3-Year results

CONCLUSIONS: CTG was more effective in increasing buccal soft tissue profile and resulted in less marginal bone loss than CMX. Therefore, CTG remains the gold standard to increase soft tissue thickness at implant sites.CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: This study was registered in ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04210596).PMID:38485651 | DOI:10.1111/jcpe.13975
