Background: Immediate implantation in fresh extraction sockets is regarded as a treatment modality that appears to give various advantages over the delayed traditional type. Thus, the aim of this case series was to assess the clinical, radiographic, and esthetic outcomes of the immediately placed implants and describe some of the essential clinical factors to consider when selecting patients for implants such as, the thickness of socket walls, thickness of gingival drapes, and optimal position of the implant, and patient factors such as medical conditions, hygiene and smoking cessation, as well as the benefits and drawbacks of this treatment modality.

Objective: To restore the normal function, aesthetics, speech, and health of patients. The ability to achieve these characteristics with the use of immediate dental implants in the rehabilitation of partially and fully edentulous jaws has become a well-established and accepted modern therapeutic modality techniqies.

Methods: Immediate dental implant placement was placed at the freash extraction socket. Radiographic evaluation was performed to assess the amount of marginal bone loss, and patient assessed outcomes were also evaluated at the 6 month follow-up. All implants were successful functionally without any pain or inflammation, with optimal soft tissue health and esthetics, and with minimal radiographic marginal bone loss at the last follow-up visit (3 months after).

Results: There were an excellent clinical, radiographical and aesthetics outcomes in immediately placed implants.

Conclusion: Immediate implants showed excellent results regarding implant success, survival and esthetic outcomes with high patient satisfaction in this study. Evidence available indicates that it is a successful procedure that may benefit patients. However, careful planning and case selection are needed to ensure implant success and final esthetic outcomes.
