Root retention for immediate implant replacement: a case report
1Department of Restorative Dentistry, University of Illinois School of Dentistry, Chicago.
Abstract:
The technique of immediately replacing a tooth with an implant often has advantages over implant placement where partial or complete healing of the extraction site has occurred. Applying the technique of intentional root submersion before immediate replacement can facilitate implant placement and improve the final results. The advantages and the method of combining these techniques are described.
