The loss of a tooth leads to a series of biological changes in the tissues, resulting in bone resorption and gingival collapse. To avoid these problems, it has been proposed to place immediate post-extraction implants, allowing a reduction in treatment time and the number of surgeries, as well as better maintenance of the tissues. This technique can be performed with standard abutments after implant placement or, more recently, the use of temporary abutments has been proposed.
