Feasibility of immediate placement of single‐tooth implants in the aesthetic zone: a 1‐year randomized controlled trial

Abstract

This study showed that immediate placement and immediate provisionalization was non-inferior to immediate placement with delayed provisionalization. In addition, although not powered for these outcome variables, no clinically relevant differences in other outcomes were observed (www.isrtcn.com: ISRCTN57251089).

Immediate Single‐Tooth Implant Placement in Bony Defects in the Esthetic Zone: A 1‐Year Randomized Controlled Trial

“…The inter‐ and intra‐observer correlations for both the radiographic and photographic measurements were very high. For details, see Slagter et al 6 …”

Effect of connective tissue grafting on peri‐implant tissue in single immediate implant sites: A RCT

“…The implant site was prepared on the palatal side of the alveolus according to the manufacturer's manual using a surgical template representing the ideal position of the prospective implant crown. The last used implant drill was placed as a space maintainer to augment the gap between the drill and peri‐implant bone with a 1:1 mixture of autogenous and anorganic bovine bone (Geistlich Bio‐Oss ® , Geistlich Pharma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland) (Slagter et al., ). The autogenous bone was harvested from the maxillary tuberosity region.…”

“…). Specifically designed software was applied for full‐screen analysis of the radiographs (Slagter et al., ). Bone exceeding the implant platform was scored as no bone loss.…”

Buccal bone thickness at dental implants in the maxillary anterior region with large bony defects at time of immediate implant placement: A 1‐year cohort study

“…The following group was selected from a study in which patients presented a failing tooth in the maxillary esthetic region with a large bony buccal defect: test group ( n = 20): large bony defect and compared with a group selected from a study in which patients presented a failing tooth in the maxillary esthetic region without or with a small bony buccal defect: control group ( n = 20): without or small bony defect …”

“…The time path for both test and control group is illustrated in Figure . For details with regard of selection of the patients, allocation to the groups, surgical and prosthetic procedures and analysis performed see Slagter and colleagues . A short description is presented below.…”
