Online published on 24 January, 2020. Abstract Background Implant placement is combined with simultaneous guided bone regeneration (GBR) procedure to rebuild esthetic facial hard and soft tissue contours. Aim The present case report is on 2 cases wherein immediate implant placement and correction of bony defect encountered during implant placement with guided bone regeneration technique were done. Methods In this case report, 2 patients were treated with immediate implant-46 year old male patient with missing teeth in 11, 12 region and 50 year old male patient with missing teeth in the 15, 16, 17 region. Dental implants were placed in both the cases along with guided bone regeneration. Results At the 3month examination, all 4 implants were successfully integrated in both the patients. Conclusions This case report evaluating the concept of early implant placement demonstrated successful tissue integration for 2 implants. These encouraging results need to be confirmed with 3-and 5-year follow-up examinations. Top Keywords Immediate Implant, Guided Bone Regeneration, Dental Implant.. Top |
