IMMEDIATE IMPLANT PLACEMENT IN FRESHLY EXTRACTED SOCKET: A CASE REPORT.

Immediate dental implant placement refers to insertion of an implant directly after a tooth is extracted, whereas de layed positioning occurs at some later time. Implant-supported fixed prostheses are usually attempted before other options such as conventional bridges or removable dentures to avoid damage to adjacent teeth. Stable and predictable esthetic and functional results can be achieved with different surgical and prosthetic management techniques of the hard and soft tissue around implant restorations. It has been suggested that immediate implant placement after tooth extraction preserves the dimensions of the alveolar ridge regardless of the mode of tooth failure. After tooth extraction, the residual alveolar ridge generally provides limited bone volume because of ongoing resorbtion. In this case we extracted mandibular anterior teeth immediately placed the implants
