Treatment Plan
Stage 1: Extraction and Immediate Implant Placement
- Issue: Fractured upper right first premolar that was unrestorable.
- Patient goal: Fixed replacement with a natural appearance
- Treatment option discussed: Dental implants vs. dental bridges
- Decision: Proceed with a dental implant to restore function and aesthetics
Stage 2: Healing and Osseointegration
- A healing period of approximately 4 months allows the implant to osseo-integrate with the jawbone.
- During this phase, the bone and soft tissues remodel around the implant to create a secure foundation for the crown.
Final Restoration
- Fixed replacement: Restores function and aesthetics in a single, efficient treatment plan.
- Bone preservation: Immediate placement helps maintain jawbone volume.
- Natural results: Custom shade matching ensures a seamless smile with nearby teeth.
- Durability: Implants provide long-lasting, stable support for a crown.
