Introduction: Planning implant
placement surgeries; General
examinations; Analyzing patient
data; Selecting types of implant-supported
prostheses; Selecting the type of implant
; Surface
texturing; Surgical guide
Implant placement—
osteotomy
—stability
Surgical instruments and kits
Tissue
reconstruction or preservation techniques Biomaterials
: blood
products,
membranes, bone grafts
Techniques
: –
extraction techniques – alveolar preservation (fresh socket)
– soft tissue management (free gingival graft)
– soft tissue management (connective tissue graft)
– soft tissue management (mixed graft)
—
clinical crown lengthening—
implant re-exposure—“onlay” bone augmentation of the alveolar ridge (horizontal and/or vertical)
—
guided bone regeneration—
block graft—maxillary sinus lift

prostheses: Single-tooth
