Few previous studies have employed HA in the implant socket; instead, the majority have applied it topically to the area around dental implants after they have been placed. The application was done after suturing in these investigations. Therefore, the goal of the current study was to inject HA into the implant socket and onto the alveolar bone prior to implant insertion and suturing in order to preserve the HA for an extended period of time. This study aims to use a visual analog scale (VAS) on the first, third, and tenth days following the surgical intervention to assess the efficacy of employing HA in dental implants in terms of pain reduction that may accompany dental implant surgery.

Change in the Perception of pain
This will be measured using a numeric rating scale. Patients will be asked to indicate the level of pain they perceive on a scale from 1 to 10. The intensity of pain is going to be classified according to the following categories: 0 = no pain, 1-3 = mild pain, 3-6 = moderate pain, and 6-10 = severe pain.
Time frame: First assessment: at 24 hours following the surgical procedure. Second assessment: at 72 hours following the surgical intervention. Third assessment will be made on the tenth day following the surgical intervention
