[Long term (10 years) experience of immediate implant placement]

Immediate placement of dental implants have been widely used to retain and support cross-arch partial dentures. 3-6 months after implantation the osseointegration is established. This period may be shortened with immediate implant placement technique. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the factors that may influence the long term success of immediate implantation. Clinical results of 10 yrs period of immediate implant placement were investigated in case of 184 patients and 258 Denti implants. The control was carried out with 121 patients and with 192 implants placed with submerged technique. The retrospective long term follow-up examination has revailed that the success rate of Denti implants with traditional two stage surgery was 97,4%. The success rate of Denti implants with immediate placement was 95.75%. According to the data, the prognosis of immediate implantations-method are compatible (comparable) to the traditional inserted implants.
