Implant-immediate extraction is a technique of choice, particularly for treatment of the anterior zone. Not only does it reduce treatment time, it also optimizes soft tissue management. To meet this objective, surgical tissue management must be accompanied by :
- Optimal implant positioning
- Prosthetic management of the case to maintain the emergence of the original tooth.
In this article, Dr. Verdaille uses case histories to discuss the surgical aspect of gingival management, as well as its indication according to the original clinical situation.
