Great presentation. You mention that regardless of the GBR the resorption of the bucal plate will happen. Will that happen always or what will be the factors increasing this resorption? Does the thickness of the remaining buccal plate >1mm will prevent this resorption or will this happen regardless?
Would you recommend early placement if there is a 2-bony wall defect (for example due to periodontitis) at the anterior maxillary region? Or is early placement only indicated with 1- bone wall defect (only facial bone wall recession)?
If you have thick biotype but thin intact facial bone right after extraction of an anterior maxillary incisor: would you recommend immediate placement if simultaneous contour augmentation is done ?
great presentation
Hi Dr. Chen, Great Presentation.
How do you apply ISQ values in determining your loading protocol
Every case need tissue graft after bone grafting?
In buccal dehiscence case where recession risk is higher is it better to use ceramic implants along with soft tissue graft?
