Immediate loading of implants placed immediately in fresh sockets: a 10-year single-arm prospective case series follow-up

Background. Implant dentistry is an important treatment option for patients requiring prosthetic rehabilitation after tooth loss. This study reports the evaluation of immediately loaded, immediately placed implants in fresh extraction sockets. Methods. Fifty-two partially edentulous patients (27 fem...

Sumario:Background. Implant dentistry is an important treatment option for patients requiring prosthetic rehabilitation after tooth loss. This study reports the evaluation of immediately loaded, immediately placed implants in fresh extraction sockets. Methods. Fifty-two partially edentulous patients (27 females and 25 males with mean age of 53.6 years), were treated with 112 Galimplant® implants placed immediately into fresh sockets for prosthodontic rehabilitation. All implants were loaded immediately. Clinical and radiographic parameters related to both the implants and the prosthodontic restorations were followed for 10 years. Results. Nine patients (17.3%) had a history of periodontitis, 26.9% were smokers, and 21.1% presented with chronic systemic conditions. The outcomes demonstrated an implant survival and success rate of 97.1%, indicating that immediately placed implants with immediate loading can achieve and maintain successful osseointegration. Three implants were lost during the healing period. The mean marginal bone loss was 1.09 ± 0.75 mm. Mucositis affected 21.4% of implants, and peri-implantitis was observed in 11.6% of implants. Fourteen implants (7.1%) were associated with technical complications, including screw loosening and ceramic chipping. Conclusions. The clinical findings of this study indicate favorable long-term outcomes for immediately loaded implants placed in fresh extraction sockets. Both implants and prosthetic restorations demonstrated a success rate of over 92.9% during the observation period.
