Implication

Retrospective study evaluates socket dimensions for immediate implant placement, suggesting implications for dental surgery.

Key Points

  • This study aims to evaluate the dimensions of mandibular molar sockets for immediate implant placement using CBCT imaging.
  • Analyzed CBCT images of 81 patients according to specific criteria.
  • Virtually positioned a 4.8 mm Straumann implant in first and second mandibular molar regions.
  • Measured socket morphology and several anatomical variables like bone width and root length.
  • Compared variables using Student’s t-test and Mann-Whitney U test.
  • Most mandibles showed undercut (U type) morphology.
  • Mean distances from the implant to the inferior alveolar nerve were 6.22 mm for first molars and 5.17 mm for second molars.
  • Mean distances from the implant to mesial and distal socket walls were 2.01 mm and 2.30 mm for first molars, and 2.14 mm and 2.59 mm for second molars.
  • The interradicular septum width significantly correlated with tooth position (P<0.05).
