Simplifying the implant treatment for an unrestorable premolar with a one-piece implant: a clinical report.
The routine and frequent use of dental implants to replace missing teeth is accompanied by high expectations from patients. These expectations are not limited to function and esthetics but extend to patient comfort and time spent receiving treatment. Replacement of an unrestorable maxillary premolar can be challenging when considering the concerns of patients. This clinical report describes a short, simple, and cost-effective treatment option for replacing an unrestorable premolar tooth with a 1-piece implant.
