Abstract

The purpose of this case series is to illustrate a technique for immediate placement of implants into molar extraction sites. The technique is a modification of the Walker's method. Thirty-five consecutive mandibular or maxillary molar sites were followed through restoration. Insertion radiofrequency index values were recorded at immediate implant placement and after 4 months of integration. One implant failed in this series. Average insertion radiofrequency index values were 77.4 ± 4.4 for 30 mandibular molar sites and 73.0 ± 7.7 for maxillary molar sites. Immediate placement of implants into selected sites was highly successful and has excellent potential.
