Immediate implant using the bone expansion technique, associated with frictional prosthesis

Abstract

Introduction: Factors such as aesthetics, maintenance of gingival architecture, shorter time for final execution of work, smaller number of surgical procedures (reopening), preservation of hard and soft tissues, among others, are reasons consolidated by several authors to plan a immediate surgical procedure. implant. However, in many cases the surgeon is faced with situations of low bone volume, which require alternative approaches, such as the bone expansion technique. Objective: Therefore, the objective of this work is to present a clinical case report of tooth extraction surgery 36 and installation of an immediate implant in a bone partition, using the bone expansion technique, with rehabilitation using frictional prosthesis. Case report: A 58-year-old patient came to the dental clinic suffering from a poorly adjusted corona. The clinical and radiographic examination revealed the patient's loss. A minimally invasive extraction was carried out and the implant was installed in the bone partition, using the bone expansion technique, with expanders (specific cutters that, instead of cutting, expand the bone while preserving a large part of its volume). The socket is filled with biomaterial and sealed with a personalized healing herb. Conclusion: It is possible to conclude that: immediate implants are a rehabilitation alternative with numerous aesthetic and functional advantages; the bone expansion technique is effective and a great alternative for installing implants in regions with limited space; Frictional prostheses are an excellent rehabilitation option with numerous advantages. As well as, the absence of screws, reversibility and elimination of excess cement behind the cementation of the corona.
