Abstract: | Marginal bone loss around immediately placed implants may compromise esthetic outcomes in the anterior maxilla. The relatively recent socket-shield technique of partial extraction therapy has been described as being useful to maintain the structure of peri-implant tissues. The present technique report introduced a digital workflow to perform image-guided implant placement after partial extraction therapy. In this technique, digital 3-dimensional images are used to plan and orient the flapless surgical procedure and to digitally design a custom abutment based on the natural emergence profile as segmented from the tooth to be extracted. |
