[Unconventional transradicular implant placement to avoid invasive surgeries: toward a potential paradigm shift].

The authors had for aim to present a new minimally-invasive protocol to rehabilitate anterior maxillary edentulism due to an impacted tooth. The implant is placed without removing the impacted tooth, which intercepts the implant trajectory. The inclusion/exclusion criteria have not been defined yet but this protocol goes against the consensual concept that no implant surface other than implant-bone interface should be tolerated.
