Purpose: Patients who treated implant immediate loading within a week after implant placement at Wonkwang University Dental Hospital Implant Center were evaluated marginal bone resorption. These retrospective analyses are intended to reinforce the clinical evidence for the implant immediate loading. Materials and methods: Medical history and radiographic data were investigated, which were the patients' who treated implant immediate loading and restoration with provisional prostheses between January 2005 and June 2016, at Wonkwang University Dental Hospital Implant Center. Total number of implants was 70, marginal bone resorption was measured according to implant length, diameter and connection type. To measure marginal bone resorption, periapical radiographs were taken when the implants were placed and after 6 month. Statistical analysis was done in Mann-whitney U test and Kruskal-wallis test with SPSS 22.0 software (P<.05). Results: Mean marginal bone resorption around immediately loaded implants according to implant connection type was shown $1.24{\pm}0.72mm$ in internal hexagon connection type and $1.73{\pm}1.27mm$ in external hexagon connection type. There was no statically significant difference in marginal bone resorption with implant length and diameter. Conclusion: Implants with immediated loading in internal hexagon connection type showed less marginal bone resorption significantly than in external hexagon connection type.

Immediate implant placement and restoration have the advantage of shortening the treatment period and maintaining aesthetics until final restoration. However, single implant restoration in the maxillary anterior region may be aesthetically difficult, and surgical trauma delivered to soft and hard tissues during implant placement may affect future aesthetic results. In order to obtain predictable results during anterior implant placement and restoration, surgery and restoration plans must consider the height of the interdental bone, characteristics of the gingiva, and morphological characteristics of the patient's teeth. In this case, we attempted to reproduce the emergence profile and stabilized soft tissue through gingiva modification and digital impression of a labially placed maxillary anterior implant in a patient who desired porcelain fused-metal (PFM) restoration due to economic issues.

Thin labial plate will be resorbed after extraction. Immediate implantation cannot prevent soft and hard tissue loss. Bone graft can be necessary in the immediate implantation after anterior tooth extraction. Slowly-resorbed or non-resorbable bone graft material have many advantages in esthetic area because of maintenance of volume. The clinicians should select the adequate cases of immediate implantation according to the indication and contraindication.

Purpose: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of using a mineralized bone cortical allograft (MBCA), with or without a resorbable collagenous membrane derived from bovine pericardium, on alveolar bone remodeling after immediate implant placement in a dog model. Methods: Six mongrel dogs were included. The test and control sites were randomly selected. Four biradicular premolars were extracted from the mandible. In control sites, implants without an allograft or membrane were placed immediately in the fresh extraction sockets. In the test sites, an MBCA was placed to fill the gap between the bone socket wall and implant, with or without a resorbable collagenous membrane. Specimens were collected after 1 and 3 months. The amount of residual particles and new bone quality were evaluated by histomorphometry. Results: Few residual graft particles were observed to be closely embedded in the new bone without any contact with the implant surface. The allograft combined with a resorbable collagen membrane limited the resorption of the buccal wall in height and width. The histological quality of the new bone was equivalent to that of the original bone. The MBCA improved the quality of new bone formation, with few residual particles observed at 3 months. Conclusions: The preliminary results of this animal study indicate a real benefit in obtaining new bone as well as in enhancing osseointegration due to the high resorbability of cortical allograft particles, in comparison to the results of xenografts or other biomaterials (mineralized or demineralized cancellous allografts) that have been presented in the literature. Furthermore, the use of an MBCA combined with a collagen membrane in extraction and immediate implant placement limited the extent of post-extraction resorption.

Combining different procedures to reduce the number of surgical sessions and patient discomfort in implant placement and sinus floor elevation has been recommended, and evidence supports good outcomes. The aim of this study was to review the results of clinical studies on sinus floor elevation through extraction sockets and simultaneous immediate posterior implant placement. An electronic search was carried out in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science to find English articles published in or before August 2020. A manual search was also performed. Titles, abstracts, and the full-text of the retrieved articles were studied. Thirteen studies met our eligibility criteria: 6 retrospective case series, 3 case reports, 2 prospective cohort case-series, 1 prospective case series, and 1 randomized controlled trial. Overall, 306 implants were placed; 2 studies reported implant survival rates of 91.7% and 98.57%. The others either did not report the survival rate or reported 100% survival. Sinus floor elevation through a fresh extraction socket and simultaneous immediate implant placement appears to be a predictable modality with a high success rate. However, proper case selection and the expertise of the clinician play fundamental roles in the success of such complex procedures.

To obtain better esthetic results when immediately placing a dental implant, the soft tissue surrounding the implant must be conditioned during healing of the extraction socket. To this end, the emergence profile can be customized through immediate restoration of the provisional prosthesis, and good clinical results can be obtained at the time of definitive restoration in the future, resulting in high patient satisfaction. In this case, horizontal root fracture occurred after trauma to both maxillary central incisors. Immediate implant placement and loading was planned considering aesthetics and alveolar bone condition. By taking an impression using a digital intraoral scanner, a digital diagnostic wax-up was performed to make a more aesthetic prosthesis without applying external force to the traumatized teeth. Based on this, the ideal placement location was determined and immediate implant placement was performed using a 3D printed surgical guide. The provisional prosthesis was restored 5 days after placement, and the definitive zirconia crown was restored through soft tissue conditioning and customization using the shape of the provisional prosthesis for 3 months.

Purpose: The guided bone regeneration (GBR) technique is widely used in periradicular surgery. However, there is still some controversy regarding the effectiveness of GBR in promoting bone healing after periradicular surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the resorbable membrane on the osteointegration of immediate implants in sites with periradicular lesion that had been removed by periradicular surgery. Materials and methods: Six roots of lower second premolars and 15 roots of lower third and fourth premolars of dogs were used as control and experimental teeth, respectively. Periradicular lesions were induced only in the experimental teeth. Twelve weeks later, the control and experimental teeth were extracted and implants were placed immediately. Periradicular lesions were removed with osteotomy, curettage and saline irrigation. Resorbable membranes were used in experimental group 1 but not in experimental group 2. After 12 week of healing period, the implants were clinically not mobile and showed no signs of infection. Data obtained by histomorphometric analysis were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test. Results: The control group showed a significantly higher bone to implant contact (BIC) ($74.14{\pm}16.18$) than experimental group 1 ($40.28{\pm}15.96$) and 2 ($48.70{\pm}17.75$)(p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between experimental group 1 and 2. Conclusion: Although BIC in experimental groups were lower than in control group, immediate implant can be successfully placed at extraction socket with periradicular lesion and osseous defect. However, the use of resorbable membrane in bony defect created during periradicular surgery was questioned.
