Hürzeler presented the socket-shield technique (SST) more than 10 years ago. The partial extraction therapy (PET), a collective concept of utilizing the patient’s own tooth root to preserve the periodontium and peri-implant tissue, has been remarkably developed. PET comprises a group of novel techniques for post-extraction implant placement. Several modifications of PET and simultaneous implant placement have been presented since its inception. Since its origin, several alterations have been employed in the methodology of partial extraction of the root and the simultaneous implant placement. A repeatable, predictable protocol is needed to provide tooth replacement in esthetic dentistry. Moreover, a standardized procedure provides a good framework for clinicians to report data relating to the technique with procedural consistency. This review aims to illustrate a reproducible and systematic protocol for the PET techniques with immediate implant placement at the aesthetic zone. The most used technique is the socket-shield technique, which is potentially offers promising results, minimizing the necessity for invasive bone grafts round implants in the aesthetic area, clinical data to support this is very inadequate. The limited research data existing is cooperated by a deficiency of well-designed prospective randomized controlled investigations. The present case studies and techniques are of actual incomplete technical value. Retrospective studies published in limited records but are of inconsistent plan. At this point, it is indistinct whether the socket-shield technique will offer a stable long-time outcome or not

Objective: To compare the aesthetic outcome of cervical lymph node excision skin closure between Steri-Strips closure and simple interrupted sutures using Nylon 6-0. Materials and Methods: The present study was a single-blinded randomized controlled trial of forty patients with cervical lymph node excision. They were randomized into two groups of twenty. The first group was allocated to close the skin by simple interrupted sutures with Nylon 6-0, the other group received the Steri-Strips for skin closure. Complications were observed at the first and second week. The aesthetic outcomes for skin closure were evaluated at 12 weeks postoperatively using the predetermined Sakka’s cosmetic assessment criteria and scoring system. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender, age, length of surgical wound, and pathology. The Steri-Strips group showed significantly lower Sakka’s aesthetic score compared to the 6-0 Nylon sutures group (6.25±0.85 and 7.75 ±1.33, p<0.001). There was no significant difference in aesthetic outcomes between genders. Moreover, the operative time of the Steri-Strips group was significantly less than that of the 6-0 Nylon sutures group (2.2±0.41 and 4.75±0.44 minutes, p<0.001). Conclusion: Skin closure with Steri-Strips gave better aesthetic outcomes compared to the 6-0 Nylon sutures (p<0.001). However, the aesthetic outcomes were assessed by physicians, so the patients’satisfaction could not be assessed.
