Management of interproximal soft tissue with a resin-bonded prosthesis after immediate implant placement: A clinical report

Effect of immediate implant placement and loading on soft tissue management

“…For healing site implant placement, 4 -6 months are needed for osseointegration after the healing of extraction sockets [8]. Alternative provisional dentures for the anterior regions at the time of osseointegration were described earlier, such as removable partial dentures and resin-bonded fixed partial dentures [7,14]. But a removable partial denture is not usually a tenderness choice for patients and resin-bonded fixed partial denture is not convenient for the loss of four teeth in the anterior maxilla; therefore, immediate loading is beneficial to patient satisfaction.…”

“…But a removable partial denture is not usually a tenderness choice for patients and resin-bonded fixed partial denture is not convenient for the loss of four teeth in the anterior maxilla; therefore, immediate loading is beneficial to patient satisfaction. However, provisional crowns can create soft tissue con- tours by applying pressure [14]. Jacques et al [20] described a technique for the improvement of soft tissue beneath the pontics by applying pressure.…”

“…tained the papillae and peri-implant soft tissue contours. [22] However, it is known that esthetics can be improved by conditioning the area beneath the pontic that is predicated on convex shape and applying positive pressure [14,23].…”

“…In the cases, primary stability can be observed, and immediate loading protocol can be executed in the anterior sites. At least a 32 -35 Ncm torque is required for the single implants' immediate loading [13,14]. Mozatti et al [15] showed in their retrospective study that immediate implant placement and loading have successful long-term results as compared to delayed implant loading.…”
