Immediate implant placement in anterior site offers numerous advantages for practitioner success and patient comfort including reduced surgical time, superior tissue management and improved patient esthetics. Various challenges may exist for immediate placement in the esthetic zone, however, implant design factors and novel restoration techniques have proven successful versus delayed protocols. This didactic course, The PREDICT Method: Ensuring Optimal Pink Restorative Esthetics, will teach you the essentials of immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone from a biomechnical perspective. Leave this course ready to place and restore ideal esthetic implant solutions in your practice. 

After watching my course, you will: 

• Learn the tools to achieve cosmetic and functionally successful dental implant placement via fully guided solutions and digital prosthetic planning protocols.  
• Navigate hard and soft tissue management for ideal esthetic outcomes and choose optimal implant timing.  
• Understand guide fabrication and design and the limitations of utilizing freehand vs. guided surgical implant techniques.
