2️⃣ Surgery
1) #14 extraction
The internal structure of the crown has decayed, resulting in a separation from the post. To preserve the papilla, the periodontal ligament was severed using an explorer, followed by extraction.
2) Drilling protocol
fig 1. After extraction, the implant position was determined with Point Initial drilling.
fig 2, 3. Undersize drilling was performed using drills ranging from Ø2.2 to Ø4.0, and after Ø2.2 drilling. The bone density determined through Ø2.2 drilling is classified as D333, indicating soft bone.
fig 4. Pre-tapping was conducted with a Ø4.5 size Maxy drill, matching the diameter of the fixture, prior to placement.
3) Implant placement: Immediate placement
After pre-tapping with a Maxy drill, an IT-III Ø4.5x11mm implant with a G.collar height of 1.8mm was placed.
The fixture was placed precisely at the pre-tapped location, achieving a stability of 40 N/cm. For optimal aesthetics, it was positioned 3 mm below the gingiva.
With an initial torque value (ITV) of 40 N/cm and an implant stability test value (ISTV) of 87 using Anycheck, immediate loading was successfully performed.
4) Bone graft
After connecting the IT abutment, alveolar bone grafting was performed using Neo bone (allograft).
3️⃣ Temporary Prosthetics: Immediate loading
Immediate loading with uncured resin implant crown using Magic i Temp, followed by final polishing and then tightened to 30N.
