One of the techniques that have been proposed to reduce the amount of bone resorption in anterior maxilla is the "socket shield (SS) ". This technique includes preservation of the facial segment of a root to be extracted and immediate implant placement. A technique of socket shield with delayed implantation using autogenous dentin graft for socket preservation, as an alternative to autogenous bone grafts, has shown predictable clinical and histological outcomes.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients with health status according to American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) I and II.
• Patients who agree to participate in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients presenting with any systemic pathology or health condition that would inhibit the osseointegration process of the implants.
• Perforated labial cortical plate seen in CBCT.
• Patients undergoing radiation therapy or history of radiation within the last two years.
