Evaluation of the Success Rate of Immediate Implant Using Clinical and Radiographic Interpretation Methods—A Prospective Study

Placement of implant into a tooth socket at the time of extraction is convenient for both patient and clinician, therefor evaluating the stability of ITI Type-1 implants.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the stability of immediately placed implant using radiographic and clinical technique at different intervals—immediately after implant placement, one month, 3, 6 months post-operatively.

35 cases required ITI Type-1 implant were selected as per the inclusion & exclusion criteria. Atraumatic extraction was done followed by implant osteotomy as per manufacturer’s instructions. The appropriately sized implants were Placed followed by placement of synthetic hydroxyapatite bone graft if needed. Clinical and radiographic evaluation were done at above mentioned specified intervals. Statistical analysis was done using Independent- t test and ANOVA with post hoc test.

All the 35 implants were stable at the time of placement, only one implant failure was noticed at 6 months. Success rate of immediately placed implant was 97.14%. The radiographic analysis of bone on mesial side was − 0.148 (± 1.1731) and on distal side was − 0.353(± 1.5800).

Immediate implant shows satisfactory clinical & radiographic results with the added advantages like decrease treatment duration, number of surgeries and comparatively lesser complications.
