Immediate Implants Placed Into Infected Sockets: Clinical Update with 3-Year Follow-Up

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

Dental implants can be placed immediately into healthy extraction sites with high success and survival rates. It has been suggested, however, that immediate placement of implants into infected extraction sites is contraindicated due to the pathology interfering with osseointegration resulting in decreased implant survival and success With many potential implant sites presenting with a preexisting periapical or periodontal infection, treatment protocols have been advocated for immediate placement of implants in these infected sites. Advancements in surgical techniques and implant surface technology have made immediate placement of implants a more predictable and accepted treatment option; however, there is still debate about whether infected extraction sites should be used for immediate implant treatment approaches. The purpose of this clinical update is to report on the success and survival of implants placed immediately into infected extraction sites.
