Optimizing the esthetic potential of implant restorations through the use of immediate implants with immediate

Background:
Few things in clinical periodontics are more challenging or potentially more rewarding than gaining an ideal result with implant-supported crowns in the esthetic zone.
Methods:
This article describes a novel approach to maintaining soft tissue health and support following immediate implant placement and immediate insertion of minimally functional single-unit screw-retained fixed provisionals.
Results:
Excellent tissue health, soft tissue profiles, and maintenance of septal bone height are documented with clinical photographs and 1-year follow-up radiographs.
Conclusion:
In addition to maximizing the chances for an optimal esthetic result, this technique also allows precise adjustment and stability of occlusal relationships for provisionals in the perioperative period.
