Immediate Implant Restorations With the Multi-Layer-Technique - 5 y Results.

Abstract Body: The esthetic immediate implant placement and restoration in compromised post extraction sites requires the combination of established surgical techniques: atraumatic tooth extraction with maximum preservation of the surrounding tissues followed by soft tissue augmentation with a sub-epithelial connective graft and hard tissue augmentation using the bone lamina technique and cortico-cancellous bone substitutes. Implant site development is the key factor when it comes to predictable results in the esthetic zone. The Multi-Layer Technique enables in only one surgical intervention a minimally invasive approach to immediate implant restorations. A 5 year follow up of consecutively treated cases demonstrates stable results with excellent tissue architecture.
