Immediate- Versus Delayed-Implant Placement Following Tooth Extraction: Survival Analyses and Factors Associated With Survival
AAOMS 89th Annual Meeting, Honolulu, HI, October 2007 Authors Markiewicz, MR. Chuang, SK. Weed, M. Dodson, TB. Abstract Statement of the Problem: Conventional implant practice dictates a delay between tooth extraction and implant placement. Some investigators advocate inserting implants immediately after the tooth is extracted. Advantages of immediate over delayed implant placement following extraction include shorter [...]
