Abstract:
Dental implant restoration is challenging procedure when it involve the esthetics zone, and since
implant dentistry is prosthodontically driven procedure, care were practice in restoration of missing teeth in
esthetics area which will fulfill the objective.
Extraction of teeth leave buccal plate bone unsupported and decrease the blood supply and since this
plate is very thin resorption will be expected. Different attempt was done in order to prevent this sequence and
create natural emergence profile around dental implant prosthesis. Socket preservation procedures were
introduced, however in case of ridge deficiencies, hard and soft tissue augmentation procedures are indicated.
Socket shield technique meets the demands of minimal invasion, tissue preservation, and no need of
bone substitute materials. And can be applied not only for maintaining buccal contour of an edentulous ridge
but also for keeping the inter-implant soft and hard tissue
In this review paper we present different articles and case report using socket shield technique as
treatment protocols and try to explore different protocol are practice in order to achieve high treatment out
come with optimal success.
