In this video, Rolf Ewers, MD, DMD, Ph.D. presents his technique for immediately placing a 5.0 x 6.0 Bicon SHORT Implant in a maxillary right second molar socket using a supraperiosteal split-thickness flap to achieve primary closure of the extraction site. Subsequently, the implant is restored with an implant-level impression and insertion of an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC). Additionally, a 6.5-year post insertion radiograph is presented.
