DL: the socket was filled with deproteinized bovine bone mineral with 10% collagen and covered by a double-layer of a collagen membrane, HW1–5: horizontal width in the 1-, 3-, and 5-mm apically below the ridge crest, BH: vertical change of the buccal alveolar crest, MH: vertical change of the mid-alveolar crest, LH: vertical change of the lingual alveolar crest, SD: standard deviation.
