Dental Implantation for Single Tooth Replacement
Replacing a single tooth with a dental implant is one of the most common clinical scenarios practitioners encounter daily.
In the past, extraction sockets were often left untreated for months before addressing the residual ridge. Today, however, it is possible to conduct a single surgery that benefits both the patient and the clinician significantly.
Authored by two renowned experts, this book begins by exploring the history and rationale behind anterior and posterior single-tooth implants. It then guides the reader through the three types of sockets—Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3—along with their specific indications and limitations.
One chapter is dedicated entirely to the clinical management of posterior teeth, followed by a chapter on cementation and impression-making techniques and their associated complications. The final chapter serves as a clinical case appendix, detailing 11 cases of single-tooth replacement across all socket types previously described.
The protocols presented in this book will streamline patient care, making it faster, easier, simpler, more predictable, and often less costly.
