Case Selection Criteria for Predictable Immediate Implant Placement and Immediate Provisionalization
Journal Title: Journal of Oral Biology - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Immediate implant placement and immediate provisionalization in the esthetic zone represents a therapeutic option particularly appreciated by patients. Reducing the number of surgical interventions and eliminating the need for a transitional removable prosthesis are clear advantages of this technique. However, performing this technique is not always possible and careful evaluation and case selection is crucial to achieve a predictable result. A 5-factor decision tree is presented in order to successfully perform immediate implant placement and immediate provisionalization or select a more appropriate treatment modality according to the different clinical situation encountered.
