Direct implant after tooth replantation failure
Rudhanton1, Ranny Rachmawati2.
Direct implant is the installation of a dental implant immediately after the tooth is removed from the socket. The ad- vantage of this method is that there is no need for repeated operations, minimizing the risk of vertical and horizontal shrinkage of the alveolar bone, due to the closing of the socket and the papilla can be maintained. This method can also shorten the visit and completion time to the crowning stage because there is no need to wait for bone healing to occur after extraction. A 21-year-old female patient came with a tooth’s grade 2 mobility. On clinical examination, there was a fracture in the cervical line area and an indication that it should be extracted. The tooth had been replant- ed 2 years ago and a full ceramic porcelain was installed as the crown. The patient asked for permanent dentures as a replacement but objected if the immediate dentures were involved. Tooth 11 could not be preserved and was extracted very carefully so as not to damage the existing alveolar bone, especially the buccal part, then the implant was placed directly with the addition of a bone graft. This is done because it considers the aesthetic aspect and visit time efficiency. The old crown was attached to teeth 12 and 21 using a bonding splint for aesthetic and patient com- fort while awaiting osseointegration of the implant. After 3 months, radiograph shown the osseointegration and then a new crown was placed on the implant. Direct implant is a way that can provide a solution for patients with limited visit time and aesthetic needs. Meanwhile, attaching the old crown as a temporary replacement for the tooth 11 can provide aesthetics and comfort to the patient.
