Placing a dental implant in an extraction site is somewhat different to placing it in a healed site, and even more so when we are considering implants in full arch treatment. This recorded webinar will look at the considerations for immediate implant placement in these situations with a focus on achieving primary stability to ensure the implants can be immediately loaded.
