Abstract

Immediate implant placement (IIP) and loading protocols have emerged as predictable treatment strategies in contemporary dentistry, particularly in the esthetic zone. These approaches offer advantages such as reduced treatment time, preservation of peri-implant soft tissue architecture, and improved patient satisfaction. However, biological and prosthetic prerequisites, including adequate bone and soft tissue support and primary stability, must be fulfilled to ensure long-term success. This case report presents the management of an 18-year-old female patient with high esthetic demands who underwent IIP, grafting, and provisionalization in the maxillary anterior region. Following atraumatic extraction and implant placement with sufficient stability, grafting was performed and a screw-retained provisional restoration was delivered within 24 h. After a 3-month healing period, definitive zirconia implant-supported restorations were fabricated and cemented. Over a 10-month follow-up, no complications were observed, and satisfactory esthetic and functional outcomes were achieved. The results indicate that, with proper case selection, sufficient primary stability, and careful prosthetic planning, immediate implant loading can provide reliable and predictable outcomes.

Özet

Modern diş hekimliğinde, özellikle estetik bölgede, immediat implant yerleştirme ve yükleme protokolleri öngörülebilir tedavi stratejileri olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu yaklaşımlar, tedavi süresinin kısaltılması, implant çevresi yumuşak doku mimarisinin korunması ve hasta memnuniyetinin artırılması gibi avantajlar sunmaktadır. Ancak, uzun vadeli başarıyı garantilemek için yeterli kemik ve yumuşak doku desteği ile primer stabilitenin sağlanması da dahil olmak üzere biyolojik ve protetik ön koşulların karşılanması gerekmektedir. Bu olgu sunumunda, yüksek estetik talepleri olan ve maksiller anterior bölgede hemen implant yerleştirme, greftleme ve geçici restorasyon uygulanan 18 yaşında bir kadın hastanın yönetimi sunulmaktadır. Atravmatik çekim ve yeterli stabiliteye sahip implant yerleştirilmesinin ardından greftleme yapılmış ve 24 saat içinde vida tutuculu geçici protez uygulanmıştır. Üç aylık iyileşme sürecinin ardından zirkonyum definitif restorasyonlar üretilmiş ve simante edilmiştir. On aylık takip süresince herhangi bir komplikasyon gözlenmemiş ve tatmin edici estetik ve fonksiyonel sonuçlar elde edilmiştir. Sonuçlar, uygun vaka seçimi, yeterli primer stabilite ve dikkatli protetik planlama ile acil implant yüklemesinin güvenilir ve öngörülebilir sonuçlar sağlayabileceğini göstermektedir.
