Dental implants can be placed in fresh sockets just after tooth extraction. These are called Immediate implants. The advantages of immediate implants arethat treatment time can be shortened and that bone height might be maintained thus possibly improving the aesthetic results. The potential disadvantages as per the studies are an increased risk of infection and failures of the immediately placed implants. A case of 27 year old boy Wlth root stump in relation to nght maxillary lateral incisor came for replacement of the same.
