Material and methods In 21 patient was made the insertion of an immediate postextraction implant, an immediate temporary reconstruction of the breach and subsequent realization of a metalceramic crowns on implant. Results A single implant was not integrated. Clinical and radiographic parameters were good. One provisional crown was fractured. At the postoperative control carried out at 6 months it was found that implants were stable without bone loss at radiological exam, the interdental papillae were present. Conclusions Single implant placement after extraction in the maxillary aesthetic zone proved to be a procedure with a high acceptability and satisfaction from the patients. Uploading a single implant in the socket immediately after extraction shortens the total treatment time, fewer surgical interventions, preserves the structure of adjacent teeth.
