Summary Implant placement in the esthetic zone is a complex procedure and requires a restoration-driven approach. Proper selection of patients and implant together with individual assessment of the risk of esthetic complications are very important. Correct 3D-implant positioning and sufficient bone volume should provide long-term esthetic and function. Esthetic region is a zone in which expectations and possibilities collide. Clinician should bring the important decision on the appropriate time of implant placement. Immediate implant placement is particularly challenging in the esthetic zone. Patient desire for reduced treatment time should be weighed against the possible risk factors. Protocol of immediate implant placement in conditions of unfavourable gingival biotypes, the lack of bone or soft tissue in patients with a high smile line lead to esthetic failure which is very important in the esthetic region.

SUMMARYObjective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of immediate postextraction implant placement. Immediate placement of dental implants have been claimed of the potential advantages such as reductions in the number of surgical interventions, a shorter treatment time, an ideal 3-dimensional implant positioning, the presumptive preservation of alveolar bone at the site of the tooth extraction and soft tissue aesthetics.Method: In this case series we reported to extract 15 teeth in 12 patients (8 males; 4 females, mean age: 46.08 years) and replace the teeth with implants immediately.Results: There were no signs of inflammation or infection and none of the patients had complaints subsequently. All implants were osseointegrated at the time of abutment connection. Postoperative healing was uneventful in all of the patients. No complications were observed.Conclusion: Within the limits of the present study, immediate implant placement was a predictable treatment.

INTRODUCTION: Immediate dental implants have greatly reduced the treatment time and the number of surgical interventions. Recently it has been noted that this treatment modality can be used in aesthetically demanding cases especially the anterior maxilla. CASE REPORT: In the present case report a 24 year old male patient reported to our institution with fractured upper front teeth. After careful examination and treatment planning immediate implant treatment was initiated. The teeth were extracted atraumatically. We placed three implants into the extraction sockets. The prosthetic rehabilitation was done with metal ceramic crowns. CONCLUSION: It was found that the immediate implant therapy has several advantages such as reduced treatment length, preservation of soft and hard tissues surrounding the implant and reduced number of operations. Immediate implant treatment therefore has a great future in the treatment of aesthetic zones.

Abstract A major drawback of implant therapy is the comparatively long healing period involved. Early and immediate loading of dental implants can significantly decrease the treatment time and thus result in an increase in patients' comfort. In this report, 3 cases of placement and immediate loading of the final implants are presented. In 2 of these cases, where preliminary augmentation was necessary, provisional implants were placed after the procedure and immediate provisional dentures were delivered. With the exception of 1 case, in which 1 implant failed, no adverse events were observed. All cases are in function now for 3 to 5 years after implant placement. The observations from this limited number of cases confirm that immediate loading of implants could be a viable treatment option.

Traumatic oral injuries present their own unique restorative challenges to the clinician due to their variable clinical presentation. In such cases, achieving optimum aesthetics and function in the maxillary aesthetic zone is challenging. This case report describes the rehabilitation of a patient with immediate implant placement after suffering trauma to the oral cavity resulting in a complete loss (avulsion) of a permanent central incisor tooth. In order to preserve the existing soft and hard tissue and to achieve predictable and aesthetically pleasing results, we decided to place an immediate implant as opposed to replantation of the avulsed tooth. Flapless implant surgery was planned and a dental implant (Bio horizons Implant Systems, Inc.) was placed following non-submerged protocol. At six month’s follow-up, the clinical and radiographic examination revealed a well osseo-integrated implant with an intact buccal cortical plate. Continuous...

The achievement of the optimal implant position is a critical consideration in implant surgery, as it can facilitate the ideal prosthesis design and allow adequate oral hygiene maintenance. The switch from bone-driven to prosthetic-driven implant placement, through a comprehensive diagnosis and adequate treatment plan, is a prerequisite for long-term successful implant-based therapy. The aim of the present case report is to describe a step-by-step prosthetic retreatment of a patient with primary treatment failure due to incorrect dental implant placement. Although dental implants achieve high survival rates, the success of implant prosthetic therapy significantly relies on an appropriate implant position. Malpositioned implants can cause damage to vital structures, like nerves or vessels. Moreover, improper implant positioning can result in esthetic, biological, and technical complications and can, in extreme situations, render the desired prosthetic rehabilitation impossible to achieve.

The value of computer-aided implant planning using cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) for single immediate implants was explored. Eighteen patients requiring extraction of a tooth followed by a single immediate implant were enrolled. Small volume preoperative CBCT scans were used to plan the position of the implant. A taper screwed–type implant was immediately placed into a fresh socket using only the final 1 or 2 drills for osteotomy. Postoperative CBCTs were used for the analysis of actual implant placement positioning. Measurements of the planned and the actual implant position were made with respect to their position relative to the adjacent teeth. Mesio-distal displacements and the facial-lingual deviation of the implant from the planned position were determined. Changes in the angulation of the planned and actual implant position in relation to the clinical crown were also measured. To statistically summarize the results, box plots and 95% CIs for means of paired differences were used. The analysis showed no statistical difference between the planned position and final implant placement position in any measurement. The CBCT scans coupled with the computer-aided implant planning program along with a final 1-to-2 drill protocol may improve the accuracy of single immediate implant placement for taper screwed–type implants.

Abstract The success rate of immediate tooth replacement has been well documented in the literature. To achieve long-term success of dental implants, evaluation of the dimensions of the resorbing alveolar process must be accurate because an implant should be surrounded by at least 1 mm of bone. To minimize facial gingival recession, an intact labial bony plate along with an osseous-gingival relationship of 3 mm on the facial aspect of the failing tooth has been suggested. This article mentions a technique wherein the amount of available labial and palatal bone of an extracted socket can be assessed by using the extracted tooth that is to be replaced with an endosseous implant and a ridge mapping procedure without reflecting the flap.

Immediate implants are placed in the site of surgical extraction of the tooth to be replaced. The percentage success of such procedures varies among authors from 94-100%. Immediate implant placement is most commonly indicated when tooth extraction is done with pathologies not amenable to treatment. The advantages include reduced post-extraction alveolar bone resorption, shortened treatment time, and the avoidance of a second surgical intervention with regard to delayed implantation. This report describes a case of immediate implant placed in a maxillary central incisor followed by evaluation of soft and hard tissue changes occurring during post-operative period with a follow-up at five years.

Relevance. Immediate implant placement with immediate temporisation is method of choice in case of central incisors extractions. In nowadays there are many protocols aimed on optimisation of the immediate prosthetic result. Some of them are based on using CAD/CAM technology, others stress the importance of peri-implant grafting procedures as a means of clinical success. The aim of the study is to analyse tactic of treatment in cases of immediate implant prosthetic replacement of maxilla central incisors using assessment of clinical example and elaboration of the optimal treatment option. Materials and methods. We conducted the evaluation of the 54 year old male patient with the use of clinical and paraclinical examination methods (OPG, CBCT). Implant placement in the position of the teeth 1.1, 2.1 was performed utilising new NobelParallel Conical Connection TiUltra (NobelBiocare, USA) 4.3*13 mm followed by implant supported Procera Zirconia prosthesis. We used international indices PES and it’s modification WES for the assessment of the achieved results. Results. The final result received following scores: PES index = 7, WES index = 8. Conclusion. Choice of implant design is a major influencing factor on the immediate implant placement prognosis. Utilising Nobel Active implant in the described clinical situation combining its placement with grafting of the connective tissue taken from the tuberosity area led to the decrease in total treatment time and achievement of the superior esthetic and functional result.
