Immediate implant placement and temporization: literature review and case studies

Today, patients are extremely concerned with esthetics. In fact, esthetic demands and expectations are becoming greater everyday. The clinician must address various treatment modalities, focusing on the patient's needs, as well as esthetic demands. Therefore, the clinician should establish a precise diagnosis and determine the most appropriate and least traumatic treatment plan. In this regard, it is not necessary to choose the most sophisticated therapy but, rather, to select the simplest and most secure treatment protocol to achieve the expected results. The treatment decision also should incorporate the most conservative and quickest option to prevent injury to the periodontal and dental structures.
