In the past decade, efforts have been made to find the best treatment for immediate implant placement and with extraction sockets. Many protocols have been proposed such as ridge preservation, custom healing abutments and immediate loading. These protocols involve multiple steps and a waste of material. In this presentation, we will talk about methods to overcome these problems and minimize treatment time with digital solutions based on biology.
Upon completion of this presentation, participants should be able to:
1) Describe the role of biological principles in abutment selection.
2) Explain the implant-abutment junction and its role in marginal bone stability.
3) Evaluate different methods for immediate temporization.
