AI Article Synopsis
- Implant placement during maxillary molar extraction offers several advantages for patients, as discussed in the study.
- A total of 391 rough-surface implants were successfully placed in 386 patients, with follow-up periods averaging 40.3 months and lasting up to 75 months.
- The results show a 99.5% success rate for the implants, making this technique a reliable option for treatment when combined with regenerative therapy.
Article Abstract
Background: Implant placement at the time of maxillary molar extraction presents a number of potential benefits to patients. A technique to predictably attain implant placement in ideal positions was reported previously.
Methods: A total of 391 rough-surface implants were placed in 386 patients at the time of maxillary molar extraction. Concomitant regenerative therapy was performed as necessary. Implants were followed for up to 75 months with a mean follow-up of 40.3 months.
Results: A total of 389 of 391 implants were functioning successfully for up to 75 months with a cumulative survival rate of 99.5%. Criteria for determining implant morphology and dimension are presented.
Conclusion: Implant placement at the time of maxillary molar extraction with concomitant regenerative therapy as needed and subsequent restoration is a predictable treatment modality.

Implant stability quotient and osteogenic process in dental implant sites prepared using piezoelectric technique: A study in minipigs.
J Prosthodont
January 2025
Department of Clinical and Biological Sciences, University of Turin, Turin, Italy.
Purpose: Few studies have explored the bone response in dental implant sites prepared using a piezoelectric device, indicating moderate effectiveness in enhancing secondary stability and osteogenesis. This study seeks to expand our understanding of the changes in biological, clinical, and radiographic parameters, during the initial phases of osseointegration in sites prepared with piezoelectric surgery.
Materials And Methods: Two implant sites were prepared in the tibia of four minipigs.
Risk factors for inferior alveolar nerve injury associated with implant surgery: An observational study.
J Dent Sci
January 2025
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Seoul National University Dental Hospital, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Background/purpose: Inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury is the most serious complication associated with dental implant surgery, posing difficulties in treatment and potential for permanent disabilities. This study aimed to identify patient-related risk factors for IAN injury during implant placement and to investigate sensory disturbances depending on whether the implant was removed.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-eight patients with implant-related IAN injury were included.
