Immediate Implant Placement and Provisionalization: The Single Tooth Solution

The field of oral implantology has become a discipline of dentistry demonstrating predictable outcomes in the reconstruction of the partially edentulous patient. Immediate implant placement with provisionalization (IIPP) is a long-established and scientifically proven approach to restoring a missing tooth. The delivery of healthcare is moving toward minimally invasive approaches to reduce treatment time, pain, and cost. Immediate implant placement with provisionalization (IIPP) acts in concert with this philosophy in that it combines surgical and restorative procedures, decreases appointments, and eliminates the need for a transitional removable partial denture. Case presentations illustrate the concept in its entirety to maximize understanding.
