Abstract

The technique with socket shield is used like not total extraction therapy which is based on preserving segment from one of the sides on the root from the tooth that is going to be extracted. The main use of this technique is in cases for implant placement that is combined with grafting bone. The goal of this technique is to preserve as much as possible tissue from the periodontal ligament and also to spare the gingival tissue from unnecessary damaging during the therapy.
Indications for this technique are : 1. To support and to preserve buccofacial bone part of extraction socket in cases that require immediate implants.2. Socket shield technique is indicated in cases with vertical fractures of teeth that are without any pathology of the pulpal tissue, where the bone tissue sparing and also attractive look are a main goal.3. To preserve the papilla between the placed dental implants.
In spite of that to have a full success of this therapy is required to have enough bone tissue that will allow stability of the future implant and also absence of any kind of infection. The advantages from application of this technique are many, such as prevention from resorption of the lamellar bone, high aesthetics results, improved primary stability of the future implant, minimal invasiveness during the procedure, prevention from forming a connective tissue with the implant, low cost compared with other procedures etc. There are also disadvantages such as possibility of displacement of the buccal lamellar bone. The purpose of this study is to analyze the efficiency of this socket shield approach in immediate implant treatment. This study was based on Narrative review on published surveys, using PubMed, Medscape, Webmd, Mdconsult, Emedicine data bases. The preservation of the whole attachment apparatus of the tooth to maintain complete preservation of the alveolar bone tissue, makes the socket shield approach a very good technique that results with high level efficiency. The clinical outcomes from different studies is believed for this technique to be the best approach for alveolar ridge sparing in the future and also to use as less material as possible.
