Dental Implant in Compromised Adjacent Sockets

While early implant placement with guided bone regeneration (GBR) offers advantages, the desire for reduced treatment time and fewer surgical steps continues to drive the exploration of alternative approaches. In this context, the recent introduction of vestibular socket therapy (VST) presents an intriguing option. VST utilizes a minimally invasive tunnel access technique through the vestibular area to perform socket augmentation for immediate implant placement in compromised extraction sockets .
