Interventions for replacing missing teeth: 1- versus 2-stage implant placement

Abstract

The number of patients included in the trials was too small to draw definitive conclusions. The 1-stage approach might be preferable in partially edentulous patients since it avoids one surgical intervention and shortens treatment times, while a 2-stage submerged approach could be indicated when an implant has not obtained an optimal primary stability or when barriers are used for guided tissue regeneration, or when it is expected that removable temporary prostheses could transmit excessive forces on the penetrating abutments especially in fully edentulous patients.

Expansion of Mandibular Knife‐Edge Ridge and Simultaneous Implant Placement to Retain Overdentures: One‐Year Clinical and Radiographic Results of a Prospective Study

“…Third, the gap between the thin cortical layers was filled with grafting material and covered with a resorbable membrane which produce a higher percentage of bone‐to‐implant contact and fewer changes in marginal bone levels around the implants . Finally, the two‐stage surgical technique used in this study was reported to reduce the risk of implant failure when ridge expansion is employed compared to one‐stage surgical technique and immediate implant loading. Only one implant failed after 6 months of loading in SG which is in agreement Montero and colleagues No implant failures occurred in CG.…”

Soft Tissue Changes Around Immediately Placed Implants: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analyses With at Least 12 Months of Follow‐Up After Functional Loading

“…A number of surgical factors may impact the final position of crestal bone and soft tissue levels around IIP, affecting the final esthetic results 6 . Factors affecting esthetic outcomes may include variability of loading protocol, 8 , 9 presence of thick or thin biotype, 10 implant placement in one or two stages, 11 and use of the platform switching concept 6 , 12 . Although reviews attempted to evaluate IIP soft tissue changes, no specific data were reported for MFR or PH 4 , 13 .…”

Thrombocytopenia-Absent Radius (TAR): Case report of dental implant and surgical treatment

“…The use of image-guided surgery to install the dental implant provided safety, and due to the possibility of surgery without the flap, there was a decrease in the risk of bleeding and invasion of important anatomical structures, such as the nasal cavity and incisor canal ( 6 ). The immediate installation of the healing abutment along with the implant enabled the exclusion of a second surgery to expose it after the osseointegration period, thereby reducing risks to the patient ( 10 , 11 ). The ceramic crown procedure was performed to ensure adequate interproximal contact and a well-defined emergence profile in order to obtain not only aesthetics but also gingival stability.…”
