  • Title: Contemporary implant concepts in aesthetic dentistry--Part 2: Immediate single-tooth implants.
    Author: Mankoo T.
    Journal: Pract Proced Aesthet Dent; 2004; 16(1):61-8; quiz 70. PubMed ID: 15049227.
    Abstract:
    Immediate implant placement and provisionalization in the aesthetic region has demonstrated predictable long-term results. Use of the immediate loading protocol significantly reduces the need for a second surgical intervention following implant placement. Based on the patient's preoperative condition, this technique can also be incorporated in select cases without the need for complicated bone grafting and augmentation procedures in compromised ridges. This article discusses the placement of single-tooth implants in the anterior region and presents the advantages and limitations of the immediate placement protocol.
