Immediate Restoration of a New Implant With High Primary Stability
Sponsor: Universidade do Porto
Summary
The main objective of this scientific study is to evaluate the short-term (1-year) survival and success rates of dental implants restored immediately compared to implants restored after a three-month healing period. The total duration of the study is 12 months following implant placement, during which clinical and radiographic evaluations will be carried out at different follow-up time points.

Interventions
Control Group
Placement of a Lynx CONNECT dental implant following the standard surgical protocol. Attachment of a healing abutment (\~1 mm above the soft tissue) instead of immediate restoration. Healing abutment remains in place for 3 months until final impression is taken for definitive crown fabrication. Post-operative care: antibiotics (amoxicillin 1.5 g/day or clindamycin 900 mg/day for 3 days), chlorhexidine rinse 0.2%, ibuprofen up to 1.2 g/day. Follow-up visits at 10-14 days, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months for clinical and radiographic assessment.
Test group - Implant restoration with a temporary crown
Placement of a Lynx CONNECT dental implant following the standard surgical protocol. Immediate attachment of a temporary screw-retained crown on the implant abutment (CONNECT). Occlusion adjusted to avoid full contact with antagonist teeth. Temporary crown will remain for 3 months until final impression is taken for definitive crown fabrication. Post-operative care: antibiotics (amoxicillin 1.5 g/day or clindamycin 900 mg/day for 3 days), chlorhexidine rinse 0.2%, ibuprofen up to 1.2 g/day. Follow-up visits at 10-14 days, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months for clinical and radiographic assessment.
