Abstract

Immediate implant placement following extraction is suggested as a method of implant treatment. As this method is associated with almost no gingival recession or absorption of alveolar bone in the extraction socket, and as the period of treatment can be shortened, its usefulness has been widely reported. In this case, implant placement was performed immediately after extraction of an upper left first premolar in which a root fracture had been discovered, with porcelain fused to a metal crown used as the superstructure. Through implant placement immediately following extraction, postoperative gingival recession and bone absorption were kept to a minimum, and esthetic recovery was achieved. Moreover, the period of treatment up to functional recovery was shortened, showing that this can be an effective method of treatment in prosthetic dentistry when applied to suitable cases.
