Immediate Placement in Fresh Extraction Socket – State of the Art

Immediate Placement in Fresh Extraction Socket – State of the Art

This lecture will highlight the biologic and clinical evidence of immediate implant placement into extraction sockets. Research findings are presented in a clinical logical fashion and used to support clinical protocols to place implants successfully in patients with extraction sites. Surgical important criteria like implant position, socket grafting and loading protocols are discussed. The healing phenomena after tooth extraction is used as an leading thread on how to treat an extraction site implant placement.

Learning Objectives:

• Learn the biologic evidence behind the healing phenomena after tooth extraction
• Know the important steps for successful implant extraction placement
• Differentiate which extraction socket to choose for implant placement and how to manage them
