Guided bone regeneration at immediate implant insertion and loading: a case report.
A tapered-end, SLA- (sandblasted and acid-etched) surfaced ITI implant was placed in a compromised ridge at the time of tooth removal. After placement of nonautogenous regenerative materials, the implant was immediately loaded with a provisional restoration within 2 hours of implant insertion. Six-month reentry demonstrated regeneration of lostalveolar bone surrounding the implant and clinical implant immobility. Clinical ramifications of these findings are discussed.
