alveolar ridge preservation using deep collagen layer, xenograft and collagen membrane seal versus the use of xenograft and collagen membrane seal alone. Measuring the clinical and radiographic alveolar ridge dimensional changes following after preservation at the time of implant placement
alveolar ridge preservation using deep collagen layer, xenograft and collagen membrane seal versus the use of xenograft and collagen membrane seal alone. The primary objective of the study is measuring the clinical and radiographic alveolar ridge dimensional changes following the procedure 4 months post operatively The secondary objective : * Histological assessment of alveolar bone specimens to assess bone remodeling and new bone formation in both studied groups after four months. * Patient satisfaction after implant placement

Measuring the clinical alveolar ridge changes
Measuring the thickness of the alveolar ridge in mm
Time frame: at baseline and 4 months
Measuring the radiographic change in the buccal bone thickness
Measuring the change in the thickness of the buccal ridge radiographically in mm
Time frame: at baseline and 4 months
Measuring the radiographic alveolar ridge dimensional changes
Measuring the bone density in hounsfield units (HU)
Time frame: at baseline and 4 months
Histological assessment of core biopsy
The microscopic examination of the bone remodeling and new bone through tissue biopsy (fixation and staining of the tissues) to examine the newly formed cells and count them to determine the amount of newly tissue formed
Time frame: 4 months post operatively
