Immediate Implant Placement in Aesthetic Zone: Crafting Smile with an Innovative Approach

Immediate implant placement is most commonly indicated when tooth extraction is performed owing to pathologies such as unrestorable caries or fractures. The primary advantage of this treatment modality is the diminution of healing time and reduced alveolar process resorption. Regenerative materials can be used as an adjunct with implants in order to triumph high implant survival rate and enrich good esthetic outcome. This case report illustrates treatment protocol and one-year clinical follow-up of a patient who underwent atraumatic extraction of his fractured mandibular central incisor, followed by immediate implant placement with bone grafts.

Patient Satisfaction of Computer-Guided Versus Free- Hand Immediate Implant Placement in Esthetic Zone, A Randomized Controlled Trial

Background: The evolution of minimally invasive concept made flapless implant placement combinedwith CAD/CAM surgical templates superior on free hand immediate implant placement in fresh extractionsocket. Although Patient reported outcome measure in relation to any restoration in the esthetic zoneis a very important criterion, very limited studies reporting patient satisfaction of free hand immediateimplant placement protocol compared with computer guided approach. This study aimed to evaluate patientsatisfaction of computer guided (test group) versus free hand (control group) immediate implant placementin esthetic zone.Materials and Methods: A total of 20 patients with remaining roots in the aesthetic zone and indicatedfor extraction were selected. They were allocated randomly into two equivalent groups of 10participants each. Immediate implant placement was performed using computer aided surgical guide for testgroup and free handed without any surgical guide for the control group. For patient satisfaction assessmenta validated questionnaire was used where each question of the questionnaire was scored by the patients on10 cm visual analogue scale (VAS).Results: No statistically significant difference was found in patient satisfaction between the test and controlgroups.Conclusions: within the limitation of our study, combining a computer aided surgical guide to an immediateimplant placement seems to be a predictable therapy especially for young practitioners.

Immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone-a clinical report

Implant placement in esthetic zone is a challenge in implant dentistry because of the interplay of multiple factors like adjacent restoration, bone, mucosa, and lip line that result in a serviceable prosthesis complementing the natural dentition. The philosophy behind implant/restorative protocols is preservation. If bone loss occurs gingival architecture will collape, which will lead to aesthetic compromise and inadequate bone for implant placement. This case report aims to describe important aspects of implant placed immediately into fresh extraction sockets, by evaluating the changes that takes place in hard and soft tissues occuring upto 2 years following the implant placement.
