Immediate Dentoalveolar Restoration

Single-tooth replacement in the esthetic zone is one of the most common indications for dental implant placement. Immediate dentoalveolar restoration (IDR) is a technique established to broaden indications for immediate loading on individual teeth with compromised hard or soft tissue architecture. With this protocol, lost tissues are reconstructed in the same surgical session as implant placement and provisional crown delivery, reducing the number of interventions and promoting better esthetics with greater predictability. This book provides step-by-step explanation of the protocols for IDR, featuring minimally invasive and flapless procedures, use of the maxillary tuberosity for graft harvesting, immediate loading, and correct crown contouring for adequate emergence profile. Many clinical cases of different complexity are demonstrated to highlight the versatility of this technique and the excellent outcomes possible.
