    Not sure if this has been discussed yet but when do you guys consider it “ok” to do flapless guided implant placement or do you think a flap should always be done?

    • I think flapless definitely has a place, especially if you’re doing guided AND you are placing an implant into a very thick ridge of bone. I think, if its not thick, you could be asking for trouble by sticking to flapless

      • Always exceptions but typcially a great habit to flap even if a minor one to verify accuracy and to maximize your keratinized tissue where you want it to be.

        Looking into purchasing an implant planning software. We do a lot of work with NeoDent / Straumann so we received a quote for CoDiagnostix which is their tx planning software. We also use Trios with 3Shape so we are also looking into Implant Studio also. Any thoughts on either or should I look elsewhere?

        Is this a good case for immediate implant placement at the time of extraction? If so, what protocol should be done to insure the periapical infection is cleaned out and doesn’t result in implant failure? Thanks!
