Immediate implantation is widely applied as it is recognized as a useful implant treatment in dental clinic due to its various advantages as well as being able to shorten the treatment period. Immediate implant treatment was performed on 5 patients who needed extraction of the mandibular first molar for various reasons, shortening the overall treatment period, and obtaining satisfactory results. Immediate implantation after extraction is a high-level treatment that requires proper initial fixation at the exact location of the extraction socket and the surrounding soft tissues, but is considered to be a clinically very useful prosthetic restoration method

To obtain better esthetic results when immediately placing a dental implant, the soft tissue surrounding the implant must be conditioned during healing of the extraction socket. To this end, the emergence profile can be customized through immediate restoration of the provisional prosthesis, and good clinical results can be obtained at the time of definitive restoration in the future, resulting in high patient satisfaction. In this case, horizontal root fracture occurred after trauma to both maxillary central incisors. Immediate implant placement and loading was planned considering aesthetics and alveolar bone condition. By taking an impression using a digital intraoral scanner, a digital diagnostic wax-up was performed to make a more aesthetic prosthesis without applying external force to the traumatized teeth. Based on this, the ideal placement location was determined and immediate implant placement was performed using a 3D printed surgical guide. The provisional prosthesis was restored 5 days after placement, and the definitive zirconia crown was restored through soft tissue conditioning and customization using the shape of the provisional prosthesis for 3 months.

In the case of an extraction in the maxillary anterior region, immediate placement of implant-supported fixed prosthesis can be considered as a treatment option. Fewer surgical operations, reduced treatment time, and optimal availability of existing bone are obvious advantages of the method; however, when applied in the continuous maxillary anterior region, inter-implant distance must be carefully considered, as well as accurate diagnosis and treatment planning for predictable outcome. In this case report, immediate placement of two implants in the continuous maxillary anterior along with bone graft following the extraction of root rests, and the restoration of provisional and implant-supported fixed prosthesis on a 63-year-old patient had resulted in both esthetically and functionally satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Dental trauma is common in active children and adolescents. Among them, in the case of ankylosis due to avulsion, diagnosis through clinical examination is important, and the treatment is important for esthetic prosthetic restoration after adulthood. This case is a case of esthetic prosthetic restoration of maxillary anterior teeth through decoronation and implant. After that, space was maintained for prosthetic restoration using a decoronated crown. After becoming an adult, precise implant placement and esthetic prosthetic restoration were possible using guide surgery. For soft tissue support, the temporary crown were replaced by changing the contours of the temporary crown, and the final esthetic prosthesis was fabricated by digital wax-up.

This report demonstrates a method of generating a chair-side and computer-aided template for implant surgery based on the Top-Down and restoration-driven concept. Compared to the traditional CAD-CAM process which requires multiple steps to be taken between dental clinic and laboratory, this alternative procedure, VARO guide system (VARO Guide, CAD, Pre-Guide, VARO-mill, NeoBiotech, Seoul, South Korea) enables accurate and patient-friendly implant surgery as well as immediate provisional restoration in a single visit. First, bite-registration at centric jaw relation and CBCT were taken using the Pre-Guide. The CBCT data was then reorganized directly through the chair-side CAD, and we could determine the most appropriate 3-dimensional position of implant. The STL file was extracted and put into the chair-side CAM (VARO-mill) to fabricate a VARO. This surgical guide allowed the implants to be accurately positioned into the planned sites within an hour.

In edentulous patients, implant - supported fixed prosthesis treatment has been proved to be useful, but involves complex treatment process. On the other hand, in the modern dentistry, digital technology has been developed day by day and it has expanded its range to the implant restoration of edentulous patients. In this case, a digital system was used for all stages of diagnosis, surgery, design and fabrication of provisional implants fixed prosthesis restoration in 66-year-old mandibular edentulous patients. In the preoperative diagnosis stage, a provisional restoration was designed based on the mucosal scan using the intraoral scanner and the stable occlusion of prefabricated complete denture of the patient. After flapless implant surgery using the surgical guide, the prefabricated interim restoration was connected to the implant and used as immediate provisional restoration. The final restoration was designed and fabricated by transferring the vertical dimension and the centric relation of the provisional restoration with stable occlusion using digital technology. We report a simple protocol of implant treatment in edentulous patients by using digital techniques to preserve the patient's vertical dimension and occlusion.
