      Very cool study here on immediate implants that I share with docs we teach and thought you all would benefit. Let me know what you think and/or if you have any questions.

      • This case I posted last year when I was planning. Here it is at 5 months, I am concerned about the buccal plate width at the mid/apical third. Clearly should have put this more lingual. Long term predictability?

        • Hopefully it will be ok with time, at this point I would do anything other than monitor and learn from it going forward. We all have some cases like that that we learn from.

        • Immediate #8, I did graft the buccal gap, but boy did that resorb :/

          • That is why we want to account for anatomy and undercuts and maximize the buccal gap and place more narrow diameter implants in the anterior to maintain more bone and biology that is needed.
