Case Study: Immediate implants
Recent advancements in dental technology and findings from contemporary research suggest that implants can be effectively placed in areas with significant apical (root tip) infections. This process is feasible under certain conditions, including the administration of systemic antibiotics and meticulous cleaning of the inflamed tissue. This approach represents a significant development in dental implant techniques, offering new possibilities for treatment in more complex cases.
