Abstract
Background/purpose
Immediate implant placement (IIP) and immediate implant placement with provisionalization (IIPP) have gained popularity for reducing treatment time and improving patient outcomes. However, these techniques involve varying levels of surgical and prosthetic complexity. Existing implant classification systems primarily focus on timing and bone healing stages, but they do not fully address the combined surgical and restorative challenges presented by IIP and IIPP cases. The purpose of this article was to provide a classification system for IIP and IIPP based on their surgical and restorative difficulties.
Materials and methods
This retrospective clinical study evaluated immediate implant placement (IIP) and immediate implant placement with provisionalization (IIPP) cases performed between January 2009 and February 2024. All patients provided informed consent for their treatment data to be used for research purposes.
Results
The results of this retrospective study validate the classification system's ability to predict treatment complexity and outcomes. Cases classified as high difficulty in both surgical and restorative parameters showed lower survival rates (91.2 %), higher complication rates (35.3 %), and lower patient satisfaction scores compared to low and moderate difficulty cases.
Conclusion
The classification system proposed in this article, based on surgical and restorative difficulty, provides a structured approach to case selection, allowing clinicians to manage risks effectively and improve treatment outcomes. This classification system serves as a valuable tool for clinical decision-making, treatment planning, and managing patient expectations in immediate implant placement and provisionalization procedures.
期刊介绍:
he Journal of Dental Sciences (JDS), published quarterly, is the official and open access publication of the Association for Dental Sciences of the Republic of China (ADS-ROC). The precedent journal of the JDS is the Chinese Dental Journal (CDJ) which had already been covered by MEDLINE in 1988. As the CDJ continued to prove its importance in the region, the ADS-ROC decided to move to the international community by publishing an English journal. Hence, the birth of the JDS in 2006. The JDS is indexed in the SCI Expanded since 2008. It is also indexed in Scopus, and EMCare, ScienceDirect, SIIC Data Bases.
The topics covered by the JDS include all fields of basic and clinical dentistry. Some manuscripts focusing on the study of certain endemic diseases such as dental caries and periodontal diseases in particular regions of any country as well as oral pre-cancers, oral cancers, and oral submucous fibrosis related to betel nut chewing habit are also considered for publication. Besides, the JDS also publishes articles about the efficacy of a new treatment modality on oral verrucous hyperplasia or early oral squamous cell carcinoma.
