bone regeneration with graft and barriers. However, recent authors have shown that if the procedure to place the IMI was planned to be apless, simpler options are possible. For example, Hu et al26 managed IMI placement in sites with varying degrees of buccal dehiscence simply by densely packing xenograft parti­cles under the buccal soft tissues and waiting 6 months for bone healing. Sicilia-Felechosa et al27 used a similar approach for buccal dehiscences, but rst placed and stabilized with sutures either an autogenous connec­tive tissue graft or AlloDerm (AbbVie) under the buccal soft tissues.

Socket Shielding

Purpose of socket shielding
Socket shielding, intending to retain alveolar ridge anatomy, is another approach recently suggested to oer positive benets with IMI outcomes.28 e loss of a tooth leads to profound changes of its alveolus that may directly inuence the ability to place an implant. e amount of resorption the alveolus will undergo following tooth extraction is dicult to predict, but it is generally held to be 50% or more by 1 year.29 e main reason for this resorption is due to the “bundle bone phenomenon.” Bundle bone is the thin (0.2- to
0.4-mm) layer of bone laid down by the developing tooth bud when a tooth’s root system rst devel­ops. It forms part of the periodontal ligament (PDL) complex, and once the tooth is extracted, it quickly resorbs because of the lack of function and loss of blood supply from the PDL.
“Partial extraction therapy”28 is an umbrella term for techniques where either the whole or part of the root is left behind to help maintain the integrity of the ridge. e technique of socket shielding, or the root membrane technique,30 involves leaving a thin shell of buccal tooth root and periodontal attachment apparatus at the time of immediate implant placement in order to maintain buccal alveolar ridge contour, and it was rst studied as a concept in one dog.31 e investigators sectioned the dog’s mandibular third and fourth premolars and decoronated the distal aspect of each crown to allow implant osteotomy preparation toward the lingual and within the remaining distal root structure. After osteotomy preparation, any remaining proximal or lingual root remnants were removed, leaving only a thin shell of intact tooth and periodontium buccally and extending approximately 1 mm coronal to the buccal bone plate. Enamel matrix derivative (Emdogain, Straumann) was applied to the internal aspect of this buccal fragment, presumably to encourage new cementum formation,32 followed by placement of an immediate implant. Four implants were placed, with two intentionally in direct contact with the buccal root fragment and two not. Place­ment of 4-mm-long healing abutments then allowed nonsubmerged site healing. After 4 months, specimens were retrieved and examined by backscatter scanning electron and light microscopy. With the two implants intentionally installed in contact with the retained shell of tooth, new cementum did in fact form at the implant-to–tooth fragment interface. e removal of the palatal or lingual portion of the root, includ­ing its root canal contents, apex, and any pathology,

combined with the maintenance of the thin section of buccal root and periodontium, was seen to maintain and nourish the thin buccal plate and bundle bone. Following this proof-of-principle study, investigators33 undertook clinical studies conrming at 5 years that there were minimal changes in local ridge dimensions. A large cohort retrospective study by Gluckman et al34 conrmed the viability of the technique despite limitations.35
e original socket shield was intended to contrib­ute to esthetically pleasing immediate implants placed in the anterior maxilla, and this has proved to be the case.
However, the technique is highly technical and likely not appropriate for use by the average clinician without training. Nevertheless, with adequate expe­rience, it has now been shown to be applicable with IMI placement. e concept of the molar shield was rst published by Schwimer36 and coworkers, showing excellent maintenance and emergence of alveolar bone and soft tissue morphology both clinically and radio­logically. e thinness and curvatures of molar roots, however, can make it dicult to resect the lingual or palatal portions and to eliminate apical pathology. If successful, the rewards are stunning. Contraindica­tions include molars with marked curvatures in the root, lack of buccal plate, periodontal attachment loss, mobile roots, and inaccessible apical infection.
Socket shielding procedure
A molar should be prepared for socket shielding as shown in Fig 11-6. e authors recommend raising a conservative ap to enable visualization of the buccal bone crest (Figs 11-6a to 11-6c). Following decoro­nation, the root trunk is sectioned mesiodistally at the level of the furcation using a long-shank, straight diamond bur at high speed and with copious irrigation (Figs 11-6d and 11-6e). e length and depth of cut needed are determined from the pretreatment radio­graphs. is sectioning will allow separation of the buccal from the lingual/palatal root portions. ere­after, a similar mesiodistal cut is made in the buccal half of the rst cut (Fig 11-6f). e unwanted root fragments are removed, leaving only the two future socket shields, which then can be thinned and shaped with the same long shank diamond bur18 (Figs 11-6g and 11-6h). Next, a round 2-mm-diameter diamond bur is used at high speed to reduce the crestal portion of the two socket shields to bone level and create a 2-mm internal chamfer bevel to provide prosthetic space for the crown margin (Figs 11-6i and 11-6j).
At this point, the root sockets should be meticu­lously curetted apically and rinsed vigorously using sterile saline. One or more periapical radiographs should be taken to verify that all endodontic root

canals and obturation material and granulation tissue have been eradicated. Knowing this and that there is absolutely no mobility of the buccal root shields after checking their internal surfaces with a sharp probe, the implant osteotomy preparation can proceed. Wherever possible, the authors prefer to use the osseodensication protocol described by Huwais and Meyer
37
(see chapter 7).
After inserting the implants and verifying them to have adequate stability (Fig 11-6k), the buccal gaps between implant and shields were grafted with a particulate bone allograft. Finally, custom trans­gingival healing abutments were prepared onto PAEK (polyaryletherketone) temporary prosthetic abutments, taking care to capture and support the soft tissues with a aring emergence prole that conformed to the socket circumference (Fig 11-6l; see also chapter 12).
Explicit postoperative instructions are necessary. Typically, patients are prescribed a regimen of a 0.2% chlorhexidine oral rinse twice daily for 2 weeks. Gener­ally, systemic antibiotics are unnecessary and not prescribed. A short checkup appointment is made for the patient 48 hours postsurgery, and again at 2 weeks for removal of any sutures used. Assuming that no adverse healing events are reported by the patient, the implant should be ready for restoration (resonance frequency value > 70) after approximately 3 months, preferably with a screw-retained crown (Figs 11-6m and 11-6n).
IMI Placement and Risk of Interproximal Caries
Matching implant diameter to the mesiodistal space of a molar extraction site, ie, the distance from the implant’s coronal margin (implant-to-abutment inter­face) from the proximal surfaces of contiguous teeth is a crucial consideration. us, Smith et al38 observed that when the implant-abutment interface is placed too far from an adjacent tooth root surface, an unusu­ally high incidence of caries on this tooth is a risk, likely due to frequent food impaction/collection. e cited critical implant-tooth distance (ITD) was found by the author to be 4 mm (Fig 11-7). Cases in which the ITD was 4 mm or more showed a clinically and
statistically signicant jump in decay rates, with rates continuing to rise as distance increased.
e distance from tooth to tooth as measured at the alveolar crest across an edentulous molar site will vary between arches and with the sex of the patient. For example, mean mesiodistal widths of mandibular rst molars have been recorded as 11.5 mm in men and
10.9 mm in women, while the same measurements for mandibular second molars are 10.9 mm in men and 10.1 mm in women.39 erefore, with typical mandibular molar sites (mesiodistal width up to 11 mm) having type A or B septa, appropriate implant diameters would be 4.5 to 6.0 mm. With a 6-mm- diameter implant, the ITD would be approximately
2.5 mm from each adjacent tooth. On the other hand, with type C septa or when mesiodistal width of the site is signicantly greater than 11 mm, an implant of wider diameter may be needed to reduce risk of root caries. With some of these situations, an ultra­wide-diameter implant (> 6 mm) can be helpful (Fig 11-8; see also chapter 8).
Rarely, the distance between the teeth on either side of an IMI may be too great even for an ultra­wide implant to allow the ITD to be less than 4 mm on either side. In these cases, two narrower-diameter implants placed in the root sockets and within the acceptable ITD range may be preferable (Fig 11-9). e

restoration then can be designed as either two premo­lars or as a “uted” molar with a cleansable gingival embrasure between the two implants. If the implant is to replace the terminal molar in the arch, it is more important to place the implant within an acceptable ITD to the tooth mesial to it than it is to place it in the center of the socket.
Osseodensification for Indirect Sinus Floor Elevation
As discussed elsewhere in this book (see chapter 7), unlike traditional implant burs that remove bone in order to create an osteotomy, osseodensication burs run at high speed in reverse (ie, noncutting) mode, creating osteotomies by compacting bone laterally and apically. e autograft collected and pushed apically by these burs can create a minor (2 to 3 mm), localized, indirect sinus oor elevation not unlike that achiev­able with hand osteotomes,
40,41
but in a much less trau-
matic way for the patient and less stressful manner for the clinician. However, the approach can be further modied for sites requiring more than 3 mm of sinus elevation using a well-tested protocol provided by the manufacturer. Sites selected should have 4 to 5 mm of residual subantral bone height measured from CBCT scans. e surgery should be apless, as is usual with IMI procedures. Following decoronation of the molar crown at the level of the tooth’s furcation, the three roots should be sectioned and removed individually.
e case shown is one with a maxillary rst molar needing replacement (Figs 11-10a to 11-10c). After extraction, a type A IRS suitable to receive an IMI remained (Fig 11-10d). The plan was to place a 10-mm-long × 6-mm-diameter implant, meaning that around 6 mm of sinus membrane elevation was needed. Rather than initiating the osteotomy with a pilot bur, the smallest diameter (2.0-mm) Densah bur (Versah) was used in cutting mode (clockwise) to the approximate depth of the sinus oor. e same bur then was used in reverse (counterclockwise [CCW]

mode) at 800 to 1,500 rpm to locate the sinus oor with haptic feedback and then upfracture it, leaving an intact sinus membrane (Figs 11-10e and 11-10f). Osteotomy development is then continued in sequence with Densah burs of 3-, 4-, and 5-mm diameter in CCW mode, each entering the sinus domain 1 mm at
a time to a nal depth of 3 mm, all the while employ­ing a modulating pressure and pumping motion with the handpiece.

biomaterial has the advantages of immediately sealing any undetected minor membrane tears, having anti­inammatory/antibacterial properties, and contain­ing growth factors that promote vascular ingrowth and osteogenesis. e sticky gelatinous preparation was cut into small pieces, which were then packed into the osteotomy one at a time and propelled apically into the sinus domain using the 5.0-mm Densah bur in CCW mode at 100 rpm and without irrigation (Fig 11-10h). While the bur propelled the graft material apically, the actual bur tip was not allowed to pene-
trate more than 1 to 2 mm into the graft material, after which the procedure was repeated with more sticky bone. is sequence was repeated sucient times to achieve the desired elevation of the sinus membrane, which in this case was approximately 6 mm beyond the original sinus oor in order to receive a 10-mm-long × 6-mm-diameter implant (Figs 11-10i to 11-10r). Once inserted, the implant stability was measured with resonance frequency analysis to be 75, as measured with an Osstell resonance frequency device.

Short Implants as IMIs

Short Implants as IMIs
While short threaded implants (≤ 7 mm) had a check­ered history in the past,42 considerable evidence has now accumulated to verify that with proper tech­nique and implant design, implant length is rarely a primary consideration43 since functional loading primarily aects only the most coronal three to ve threads regardless of implant length.44 Accordingly, many implant manufacturers now oer short (6 to 8 mm) and even ultra-short (< 6 mm) implants for use in replacing molars, particularly in the mandi­ble, where proximity to the neurovascular canal is
a hazard.45 Many of these were originally oered as “rescue” implants and were made with diameters of 5 mm or greater, generally for use at healed extraction sockets.
45,46
e present authors have used both short and ultra-short threaded implants frequently, initially in healed extraction sites, but more recently as IMIs. Several sample IMI cases will be shown.
Case 1
A rst example involved a patient needing replace­ment of his left maxillary right second premolar and rst and second molars (Fig 11-11a). e three teeth

were removed using apless surgery, and three imme­diate implants were placed (Figs 11-11b and 11-11c), the two molar implants being short Dentium Super­line implants (7 mm long × 6 mm diameter). No gap grafting was done, and the implants were left with healing caps rather than healing abutments. Heal­ing was uneventful, and after 3 months, the molar implants were used to support a two-unit xed partial denture, while the premolar implant received a single crown (Figs 11-11d and 11-11e).
Case 2
e second example is of a single hopeless maxillary rst molar (Fig 11-12a). While minimal subantral bone height remained, the socket walls were all intact, and the septum was type B (Fig 11-12b). erefore it was decided to place an IMI with dimensions 5 × 5 mm (Fig 11-12c). e immediate postoperative radiograph of this implant can be seen in Fig 11-12d. No trans­crestal sinus grafting was used, and while large peri­implant gaps remained, these were left ungrafted. A healing cap rather than a healing abutment was used, and healing by secondary intention was uneventful (Fig 11-12e). e implant was successfully restored, but the patient has not yet been available for a current image of the restored implant.

Case 3
A third case involved a patient requiring the replace­ment of his maxillary right rst and second premolars and rst and second molars (Fig 11-13a). Immediate implants were planned for all four sites. MegaGen Rescue implants (5 × 5 mm) were selected for the
two molar sites, as there was very limited subantral bone height (Figs 11-13b and 11-13c). Healing caps only were used. No gap grafting was done, and the soft tissue margins were secured with sutures. As can be seen in the postoperative radiograph (Fig 11-13d), both implant apices penetrated through the sinus oor, but the implants were stable (Fig 11-13e).
