About this webinar
What if preserving part of a tooth could be more beneficial than removing it completely?
The Socket Shield Technique challenges conventional extraction concepts by introducing a biologically oriented approach to immediate implant placement. By retaining a strategically prepared facial root fragment, the technique aims to preserve the periodontal ligament–bundle bone complex and reduce post-extraction tissue remodeling.
This presentation will take participants beyond the surgical steps to explore the biological principles, clinical indications, technical challenges, and potential complications associated with the technique. Clinical cases will illustrate the importance of proper case selection, meticulous surgical execution, and long-term maintenance.
The ultimate goal is to understand whether preserving the natural root architecture can offer a meaningful advantage in achieving stable and esthetic peri-implant tissues.
