Socket-shield and immediate implantation

Introduction - After tooth extraction, the alveolar bone undergoes a remodeling process, wich leads to horizontal and vertical bone loss. These resorption processes complicate dental rehabilitation, particularly in connection with implants. Various methods of guided bone regeneration have been described to retain the original dimension of the bone after extraction. Most procedures use filler materials and membranes to support the buccal plate and soft tissue, to stabilize the coagulum and to prevent epithelial ingrowth. It has also been suggested that resorption of the buccal bundle bone can be avoided by leaving a buccal root segment (socket-shield technique) in place, because the biological integrity of the buccal periodontum remains untouched. This method has also been decribed in connection with immediate implant placement. Objective - This literature review aim enumerate and describe the different treatments and tissue reactions after tooth extraction, immediate and delayed implantation. The socketshield technique, the evolution in tooth extraction and immediate implantation with high esthetic results due to the preservation of hard and soft tissues by leaving a buccal root segment in place. Materials and methods - For this purpose a research has been done and data was obtained from on-line resources: Medline, Pubmed, Scielo, Bireme, Bon, books and specialized magazines which was conducted between January 2016 and May 2016. A number of articles have been obtained in English and French ,published between 1997 and 2015 . The key words used were implantology, dental implant, hard/soft tissue, tooth extraction, immediate implantation, delayed implantation, socket-shield. Conclusion - In socket-shield technique, there were neither functional nor aesthetic changes in soft and hard tissues. It’s already a routine practice in the arsenal of highaesthetic immediate implantology and should be used when indicated. Although this technique is quiet promising, we should be aware of the incoming publications about a larger follow up and the predictability of leaving a fragment inside the socket after an extraction.

Implante imediato com carga imediata

Dois estágios cirúrgicos, somados a um período de cicatrização de três a seis meses, com a ausência de cargas funcionais foram estabelecidos por Bränemark, em 1977, como protocolo cirúrgico da terapia com implantes osteointegrados. Somente após esse tempo de cicatrização, poderia ocorrer a activação dos implantes e confecção das próteses. O desenvolvimento de vários estudos, com a finalidade de abreviar esse período de cicatrização, a simplificação da terapia restauradora, somados aos avanços tecnológicos, e aos altos índices de sucesso, tornaram os implantes imediatos com carga imediata, uma realidade na reabilitação total ou parcial com implantes, abreviando o tempo de cicatrização, com a colocação de uma prótese provisória imediata, logo no final do primeiro estágio cirúrgico. Para a pesquisa bibliográfica foram utilizadas as palavras-chave immediate loading, immediate provisionalization, post-extractive implant, immediate implant, single tooth implant, post extraction sockets, immediate temporization.
