What are your thoughts on removing the incisive canal? Often times i find that with bone grafting on a 8 or 9 site that the canal still gets in the way for implants

Wow nice. What kind of membrane and stabilization techniques did you use?

I have never placed an immediate implant before but I think I found a good first case.
Patient is a 40 year male with a low smile line. Here is my proposed implant site.

I am planning on placing a 4.2×13 implant direct legacy 3. My current plan is to drill to a 2.8 osteotomy and then place the implant and hope for enough primary stability.

I have a patient who looks like a good implant candidate for a mandibular overdenture.

I’ve never done one before but the ridge width is adequate and the patient appears to have enough interocclusal space. Immediate were made about 5 months ago.

My question is, when deciding where to place the implants, do you guys routinely make a large flap…

When doing a lateral sinus lift like you were talking about yesterday, have you encountered an intrabony artery? And if you have, what is your preferred way of managing bleeding complications? Thank you!

For immediate implants, i’ve seen videos where it was mentioned to use a Linderman drill at 2000rpm to make an initial slot to prevent the slope of the extraction socket from deflecting the drill. This is in regards to anterior teeth as well as upper premolars where you are aiming for lingualized positioning

I had two questions about this
