From Minimally Invasive Tooth Extraction to Final Chairside Fabricated Restoration: A Microscopically and Digitally Driven Full Workflow for Single-Implant Treatment.

Technical advances in such fields as optical magnification (eg, loupes, microscopes), microsurgical instruments, bone and soft-tissue grafting materials, and digital dentistry have paved the way for dentists to be able to provide all the necessary specialties for a state-of-art single-tooth replacement treatment under one roof in their clinics, without having to involve a technical laboratory. This case report demonstrates a routine complete chairside digital workflow using minimally invasive and microscopic techniques in every stage of treatment, from tooth extraction and socket preservation, to implant insertion and soft-tissue management, to delivery of the final chairside digital zirconia full-anatomic supraconstruction. In addition to describing the intent of minimally invasive tooth extraction and socket preservation, this article illustrates how to perform a vestibular split rolling flap procedure and discusses its benefits. The goal of this digitally driven single-implant treatment was to achieve restoration as close as possible to the original condition.
