The aim of this case report is to present a case of root fragment removal during planned sinus lift procedure. After failed molar tooth extraction, we chose to retrieve the residual root apex with transantral approach not to damage excessively bone volume. Without changing primary implant rehabilitation purpose, the fragment removal procedure was performed prior to implant placement during necessary sinus lift surgery. Higher visibility of surgical field was achieved. The root fragment residual was removed without an additional surgery appointment avoiding postoperative discomfort. The goal is to underline the importance of being able to change planning during intrasurgical complications. It is most appropriate to operate with safe and simple procedures to reduce surgical discomfort for the patient.

For a long time, different approaches to minimize the dimensional ridge alteration following tooth extraction have been described even though none of them was capable to avoid alveolar bone loss. The Socket-Shield Technique (SST) seems to be an alternative for alveolar bone preservation in dental extraction planning. This technique conventionally uses a flapless approach and the buccal root portion retention to prevent bone loss. This case report describes the SST with an early implant placement in a patient who presented the nonrestorable tooth # 15 due to the extensive cavity. After six months of the implant placement a porcelain-fused-to-metal crown was fabricated and screwed into the implant with a satisfactory esthetic and functional result. The SST is a non-invasive and effective approach to tooth extraction and rehabilitation, especially in the aesthetic zone. Approximately two-year follow-up shows a satisfactory aesthetic maintenance.

Bones and teeth are the only structureswithin the body where calciumandphosphate participate asfunctional pillars. Despite their mineralnature, both organs are vital and dynamic. The aim was to remark the indications for alveolar augmentation after tooth extraction and prior the placement of endoosseous dental implants. The autograft, allograft, alloplast, and xenograftmaterials all have reported success, alone or in combination,for particulate bone augmentation. Theparticulate autograft is the gold standard for mostcraniofacial bone grafting, including the treatmentof dental implant–related defects. Advantages of alveolar ridge augmentation with sufficient bone volume to adjust for uncompromised and esthetic implant placement, renders these procedures more than effective for majority of patients. Surgical reconstruction of the tissues and the procedure of ridge augmentation and subsequent placement of dental implant are necessary.

To prevent the sequelae of hard and soft tissue loss after tooth extraction, future need of bone augmentation procedures and utilisation of benefits during early stages of tissue healing, early implant promises to be an armoury for dental implantologists to perfectly simulate the natural dentition in anterior aesthetic areas. Here, a case of 30 years old male with a missing #11 (according to two-digit numbering system) planned for early implant placement and immediate temporisation with delayed loading is presented.

Abstract With clinicians placing more dental implants, it is becoming increasingly important to maintain bone volume after tooth extraction. This article reports the results of implants placed into extraction sites grafted with particulate mineralized bone allograft (Puros). A total of 313 extraction sites were grafted with mineralized bone graft during a 36-month period. A total of 252 Tapered Screw-Vent dental implants were placed into the grafted extraction sites after a 4- to 7-month healing period. All reentries revealed a bony hard structure acceptable for osteotomy preparation. A total of 244 of these implants have been restored with fixed prosthesis and 6 with removable overdentures for a total of 250 loaded implants. A total of 6 implants failed, which required their removal (2 implants before load and 4 after loading), resulting in a 97.6% implant success rate. We conclude that mineralized human allograft placed into extraction sites is clinically useful to maintain bone volume. This material provided a bony hard structure acceptable for implant placement with good success rates.

In this report, a case is presented in which a patient received eight implants 10 months after tooth extraction and socket preservation. The implants were placed in both arches (maxilla = 4, mandible = 4) and immediately loaded using fixed partial restorations; they remained functional over 5 years. No changes in bleeding on probing or plaque index were observed; however, a 1.5-mm probing attachment level loss was observed during the first 3 years (mean: 0.25 mm/year) with no subsequent changes.

Abstract Because clinicians are placing more dental implants, it is becoming more important to maintain bone volume after tooth extraction. This article discusses the various bone-augmentation materials available to the clinician and illustrates a case report of particulate mineralized bone allograft (Puros) placement after extraction. Exposure of the grafted site after 5 months revealed a hard bony structure. Human histologic analysis at the light microscopic level revealed nonvital spicules of mature calcified bone having a highly organized matrix surrounded by viable noncalcified immature bone matrix, or osteoid. It was concluded that mineralized human allograft demonstrated the formation or remodeling of bone histologically and was clinically useful to maintain bone volume for implant placement after extraction. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first publication to demonstrate human histology of particulate mineralized bone allograft (Puros) after placement into an extraction site.
