The support immersion endoscope (SIE) method improves dental implant planning by offering more accurate assessment of extraction sockets than conventional methods alone. This technique enhances visualization for better bone evaluation without needing flap elevation.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral Surgery
  • Implantology

Background:

  • Accurate assessment of extraction sockets is crucial for successful dental implant placement.
  • Conventional extraction site evaluation (CESE) methods can have limitations in visualization and accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the indications, efficacy, and advantages of the support immersion endoscope (SIE) method for extraction socket assessment.
  • To compare the accuracy of CESE alone versus CESE combined with SIE.

Main Methods:

  • Twelve patients requiring tooth extraction and implant placement were included.
  • Extraction sockets were assessed using conventional methods (CESE) and CESE plus SIE.
  • CESE involved visual evaluation, probing, ridge mapping, and diagnostic wax-up.

Main Results:

  • The CESE + SIE method demonstrated significantly higher accuracy in evaluating labial plate vertical position, thickness, and bone quality compared to CESE alone.
  • Conventional CESE assessment yielded inconsistent results due to poor visualization.

Conclusions:

  • The support immersion endoscope (SIE) serves as a valuable adjunct tool for assessing extraction socket morphology and bone conditions.
  • SIE allows for detailed evaluation without the need for flap elevation, simplifying the assessment process.
