Bone and Crescent Shaped Free Gingival Grafting for Anterior Immediate Implant Placement: Technique and Case Report
نویسنده
چکیده
Immediate implant placement in a single staged approach, with or without provisionalization, can be advantageous in preserving gingival anatomy around dental implants. However, placing implants immediately in the changing alveolar bone of an extraction socket may result in progressive recession of the gingival labial margin over the implant restoration. This negative outcome may be overcome with enhanced labial thickness. Thicker labial gingiva and bone of the peri-implant tissue have shown to promote long-term stable gingival margins. This article presents a simple surgical technique utilizing crescent shaped free gingival tissue and bone grafting to promote thicker labial bone and biotype. The surgical procedure as well as the biologic and clinical rationale is described. One-year post-restoration results are evaluated and show a stable, favorably positioned labial gingival margin at the implant site.

Augmentation of deficient and atrophic alveolar ridges is an important aspect of dental implant therapy with the goal of providing a functional restoration in harmony with adjacent natural dentition. Bone splitting technique is considered a distinguished augmentation method for treatment of deficient alveolar ridges. According to this procedure, the compromised alveolar ridge is opened from the...
متن کاملStaged Osteotome Sinus Floor Elevation for Progressive Site Development and Immediate Implant Placement in Severely Resorbed Alveolar Bone: A Case Report
This case report discusses osteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) and immediate placement in 2 stages in severely resorbed alveolar bone height in which multiple implant placement is not otherwise feasible due to a lack of initial stability. The first implant placed using OSFE without bone grafting prepares the adjacent resorbed sites for further implant placement in the sinus areas, which allo...
