Abstract

MATIELLO, Catiélys Níobe  and  TRENTIN, Micheline Sandini. Dental implant with immediate load in the upper anterior region: clinical case report. RFO UPF [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.2, pp. 238-242. ISSN 1413-4012.

Introduction: This clinical case aims to briefly report the factors that may potentially influence osseointegration of immediate implants with immediate load, and to describe the methods that lead to the same clinical success. Case report: Female patient, 19 years old, good general health, sought treatment at a private care clinic complaining of darkening and mobility of tooth 21, due to trauma in that area in 2007. In 2012, the extraction of this element was planned because of dental fracture and severe mobility. In the same session, a dental implant with immediate load was installed; this procedure aimed to maintain the health and the esthetics of periodontal tissues, as well as the masticatory function and patient comfort. Final Considerations: Clinical outcomes were favorable and consistent with the technique used. Bone and gingival heights were preserved, resulting in favorable esthetics of the final fixed prosthesis. Thus, it may be considered that interdisciplinary planning was the key factor to obtain the present result.
