What it covers
This lesson provides a detailed explanation of each phase of the surgical protocol for the Socket Shield Technique.
Dr. Hürzeler shows the treatment of a patient with prosthetic crowns on the central incisors who exhibit severe asymmetry of the gingival contours.
Among other key aspects, participants will understand the importance of carefully removing all root canal material and composite from the root once the prosthetic crown is removed. This step facilitates the preparation of the implant bed through the root using drills.
This lesson demonstrates how to create the correct shield design based on case classification, allowing for an optimal choice of the shield’s anchorage position, and also covers the management of the gap between the implant and the shield, encouraging reflection on whether or not to use filling materials.
After reviewing the surgical protocol and long-term treatment outcomes, participants will clearly notice the advantages of this technique, such as the absence of swelling, pain, and hematomas, as well as the benefit of completing a complex implant case in the aesthetic zone with a single surgical procedure.
In particlar, this lecture covers the following topics:
- Preparation of the implant bed
- Removal of the palatal part of the root and the apex
- Creation of the shield design (thickness and length, biological and mechanical considerations)
- Coronal shield preparation
- Check the stability and integrity of the shield
- Implant placement
