Modern Implantology evaluated from Reconstructive to Regenerative Procedures
Modern implantology evaluated from Reconstructive procedures – severe bone loss, no augmentation methods, tilted and extra-alveolar bone anchorage implants, artificial gingiva, FP3 prosthetic, to Regenerative procedures – moderate bone loss, various bone and soft tissue augmentation procedures, implants in alveolar ridge,FP1 or FP2 prosthetic.
Contemporary implantology, biologically guided, starts at the same moment when we extract the tooth! Alveolar ridge preservation is a mandatory condition for any future prosthetic or implant procedures. The best solution is immediate implant placement if it is possible in same visit.
Unfortunately, immediately implant placement is not possible in every tooth extraction case, for a lot of reasons – inflammation, lack of bone on the palatal and apical for the primary implant stability, lack of time, financial issues etc. The real challenge is preservation of alveolar ridge without implant placement, in one visit, with long term stability for future implant placement…
