Immediate implant placement combining socket seal abutment and peri‐implant socket filling: A prospective case series

Abstract

In recent years, there has been a change in the management of patients and in the execution of the clinical and laboratory procedures of implant-supported restorations in view of improving patient demand and clinical outcomes. Patients are indeed interested in reducing the length of treatment, the number of surgical and clinical steps while achieving esthetic results. Therefore, this has led to an

Full mouth oral rehabilitation of a severely worn dentition based on a fully digital workflow

“…In the described clinical situation, minor teeth preparations were performed and adhesive protocols were strictly followed to bond reinforced ceramic restorations. Additionally, all data acquisition, treatment planning, designing and manufacturing of prosthetic structures was conducted based on the use of a digital workflow using specialized software and hardware 15–26 . Thus, CAD/CAM dentistry contributed to restoring a highly deteriorated oral and muscle‐skeletal system in a precise and fast manner, optimizing the whole treatment process.…”

“…For tooth #2.6, it was decided to do an extraction and immediate implant placement combined with transcrestal sinus floor augmentation 19–21 . Using Codiagnostix Software (Straumann, Basel Switzerland) it was virtually planned to place a 4.1 by 8 mm tissue‐level implant.…”

“…A surgical template was designed and exported for 3D printing (Straumann TL RN, Straumann, Basel, Switzerland). Socket Sealing Abutment Technique (SSA) 20 was selected to protect the allograft material around the implant. (Maxgraft, Botiss Biomaterials GmbH, Zossen, Germany).…”

“…For tooth #2.6, it was decided to do an extraction and immediate implant placement combined with transcrestal sinus floor augmentation. [19][20][21] Using Codiagnostix Software (Straumann, Basel Switzerland) it was virtually planned to place a 4.1 by 8 mm tissue-level implant. This selection would allow to perform a guided osteotomy until the sinus floor and then perform an osteotome-transposition of it, permitting to place a 12 mm length implant (Figure 16).…”
