Resumen
The immediate placement of post-extraction dental implants represents an innovative technique in implantology, designed to preserve bone architecture and optimize the stability of peri-implant tissues. The objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of immediate post-extraction implant placement with soft tissue grafting and guided tissue regeneration in preserving bone architecture and peri-implant tissue stability. This case study involved a 37-year-old male patient who underwent atraumatic extraction of a root remnant in tooth #14. Subsequently, a SIM Cono Morse implant (3.5 x 11.5 mm) was placed, with the GAP filled with bovine bone graft and the alveolus hermetically sealed using a connective tissue graft from the palate. Clinical and radiographic follow-up was conducted over a three-month period. The results showed proper implant integration, with no significant peri-implant bone loss and adequate soft tissue healing in both surgical sites. The technique reduced the number of surgical interventions and the total treatment time, achieving a satisfactory functional and aesthetic outcome. In conclusion, the approach of immediate post-extraction implant placement with soft tissue grafting and guided bone regeneration proves to be effective and predictable in preserving bone architecture and peri-implant tissue stability, offering significant advantages in terms of aesthetics, functionality, and patient satisfaction
