Esthetic factors play a major role in the rehabilitation of anterior dentition. Early implant placement is one such modality that can preserve the remaining bone while at the same time promoting uneventful healing. Bone loss is one of the markers of peri-implantitis and catching it early prevents further deterioration. Photodynamic therapy with laser has shown great results with minimum invasiveness and patient discomfort. This case report describes the replacement of fractured teeth with early implant placement followed by treatment of early signs of peri-implantitis with mechanical debridement, laser photodynamic therapy, and adjuvant treatment of the crevice with fibers impregnated with tetracycline. Early implant placement provides impeccable esthetic results, however adequate maintenance protocols and patient recall revisits are very essential for good clinical outcomes. Photodynamic therapy has been shown to improve the clinical success of implants with signs of peri-implantitis, adding years to the life of the placed implants. |
