Diode Laser Photocoagulation With Immediate Implant Placement

Placement of an immediate implant is becoming popular because of its potential in minimizing the treatment time and enhancing the patient comfort and esthetic outcomes. It is crucial to maintain adequate thickness of labial bone with the establishment of a stable and healthy gingival seal around the implant abutment to prevent the invasion of bacteria and peri-implant inflammation. Diode lasers have been developed as a promising tool in dentistry, providing a precise manipulation and photocoagulation effect that may have a positive influence on both bone remodeling and soft tissue healing. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the utilization of diode laser photocoagulation with immediate implant placement and customized healing abutment in the maxillary esthetic zone.
