Immediate placement in extraction sites followed by immediate loading: a pilot study and case presentation

Implant Dentistry

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to compare the results of implants immediately loaded in edentulous sites with implants loaded immediately in extraction sites. Since December 1998, we selected a small group of patients for immediate or early loading. Seventy-five implants were placed in nine jaws of seven patients. Two of the patients received implants in both the maxilla and mandible. Of the 75 implants placed, 29 were placed in immediate extraction sites. Twenty-six of the 29 that were placed in immediate extraction sites were loaded in less than 3 weeks. Of the 75 implants placed, 62 were loaded early (less than 3 weeks). Two implants have been lost. The remaining 13 implants were buried and allowed to heal in the customary manner. None of the buried implants failed. One of the implants lost was in an extraction site and one was in a nonextraction site. Of the 33 implants that were placed in edentulous areas and immediately loaded, one was lost. This is compared with the 29 implants placed in extraction sites that were immediately loaded. We conclude that the success rates for implants immediately loaded in extraction sites and edentulous sites are comparable.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
