Description

There is no one way to approach immediate implant placement in the molar regions, but each technique has the same prerequisites: careful selection and planning of patient cases, good knowledge of anatomy and bone biology, expertise in localized and indirect sinus floor elevations, and knowledge of when and how to use particle bone grafting. But even with such knowledge, clinicians need guidelines to learn how to achieve predictable success. This book is that guide. It brings together clinical experts in the field who have been leading the research on immediate implants in the molar regions over the past decade and describes current best practices to ensure implant success. Emphasis is placed on implant site assessment, particularly with regard to molar septum bone classification and how to achieve optimal implant positioning in the alveolus. The role of digital treatment planning and guided surgery is discussed, as is the use of bone grafts and other biomaterials to improve healing.
