Abstract
Immediate implant placement (IIP) has become an attractive treatment for many patients. It reduces time and the number of appointments and protects soft and hard tissue, which, in many circumstances, leads to a better esthetic outcome. IIP with provisionalization (IIPP) may contribute to a more promising result due to the guidance of soft tissue and the preservation of the hard tissue. Indications for IIPP are quite strict, and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a must for case selection. This case report will demonstrate how IIP with immediate provisionalization can result in a high esthetic outcome and no discomfort for the patient. A 50-year-old female presented for implant placement following the extraction of a superior central incisor due to a vertical fracture. IIPP has been used. IIPP can accomplish a stable esthetic result in the case of ideal three-dimensional implant positioning, a well-polished provisional restoration with an S-shaped buccal emergence profile, and by respecting the mesial and distal embrasure spaces for papilla maturity.
