Brief Summary

This randomized controlled trial compares two provisional socket-sealing concepts following single non-molar tooth extraction and alveolar ridge preservation: a fixed, tooth-supported, 3D-printed ovate pontic provisional restoration providing active soft tissue support (test) versus a removable Essix-type provisional restoration without intentional soft tissue contact combined with a porcine collagen matrix seal (control). Both groups receive alveolar ridge preservation using a deproteinized bovine bone mineral with 10% collagen. The primary endpoint is interproximal soft tissue height at 5 months, adjusted for baseline, assessed by digital superimposition of intraoral surface scans. Up to 40 participants will be enrolled at the University of Bern School of Dental Medicine.
