Abstract
|
|
|
|
In implant dentistry, anterior sites are most likely linked to esthetic expectations and often present a considerable challenge to dental clinicians, because various local risk factors have the potential to compromise the predictability of the results. To attain esthetic results in these compromised patients, careful treatment planning and a delicate clinical approach are important. Immediate implantation has the advantage of maintaining papilla and technical simplicity. However, this technique involves high risk of potential implant dehiscence and gingival recession due to early labial bone resorption. In contrast, early implantation includes the complicated procedure for reconstruction of gingival architecture. Two cases of patients were treated with immediate and early implantation in the maxillary anterior region. All implants appeared to be integrated and were clinically stable. The favorable marginal gingival level and improvement of labial contour were achieved in all cases during the follow-up period.
