Facial aesthetics plays an important role in the psychosocial well-being of a person. The value of the appearance of one's teeth has taken up great importance. The placement of dental implants in the anterior maxilla is a challenge for clinicians because of patients' exacting esthetic demands and difficult pre-existing anatomy.
The loss of thickness and height of the alveolar process (bone resorption) after tooth extraction is a significant impediment to implant placement, which limits the aesthetic results of many restorative treatments. Alveolar ridge preservation can reduce bone resorption.
Immediate extraction implantation is a good solution to reduce the bone loss and to preserve the soft tissue position.
Associated with an immediate temporization on the implant the procedure enhance the good aesthetic prediction of the treatment.
The using of profile designer cap iPhysio® ( LYRA ETK) as healing abutment, scanbody and temporary abutment - is the central and unique element of a simplified no-disassembly protocol, from healing to prosthesis.
The result is improved biological integration, making the treatment more durable and improving the aesthetic result.
What are the different steps to achieve a successful implant treatment in the anterior area? How can we limit the bone resorption? How can we keep the original level of papilla and the soft tissue keys of the success ? We ‘ll try to answer on these questions.
