Immediate implant with bone augmentation and gum graft

The concern

In one of my earlier cases, we gained the confidence that prompt implant placement post-extraction can be successful, even in instances with extensive bone loss and absent buccal lamella. This patient’s journey started with a fall that injured her front teeth when she was just 12 years old. Nearly a decade later, at the age of 21, she approached us seeking a solution for the fistulas that had formed on both teeth.

The treatment

Initially, we aimed to preserve the teeth by implementing MTA root canal treatments. However, this approach fell short of our expectations, as the treatment was unsuccessful after a year. With the situation becoming more complex, we decided to insert immediate implants and temporary replacements. This process was bolstered by the augmentation of bone and soft tissue.
