When placing an implant immediately after extraction in the molar region, the main challenge is the discrepancy between the dimensions of the extraction socket and the implant diameter.
In most cases, the implant diameter is too narrow compared to the socket to achieve satisfactory primary stability.
If, on the other hand, complete healing of the post-extraction site is allowed before implant placement, significant contraction of the alveolar bone volume occurs. Bone resorption can reach up to 40% within the first 3–4 months. Following these morphological changes, restoration of the missing tooth typically requires the use of standard or narrow implants, which are not always the optimal biomechanical and anatomical solution.
With this conventional treatment approach, the patient must undergo two surgical procedures: tooth extraction and, after 4–5 months, placement of a standard implant.
With the ULTRA immediate post-extraction approach, however, the patient can be treated in a single surgical procedure, during which both the extraction and the simultaneous placement of the ULTRA implant are performed. This allows the case to be finalized approximately four months later.
ULTRA dental implants feature a wider body diameter than standard implants.
This design serves two main purposes:
1-To provide excellent primary stability thanks to its unique design.
2-To act as a socket-filling implant, promoting and accelerating the healing process.
The highly aggressive thread design of ULTRA enables exceptional stability and extremely high insertion torque.
ULTRA is therefore the ideal implant for rehabilitating immediate post-extraction sites in both the upper and lower molar regions, supporting and enhancing the patient’s natural biological healing response with a single surgical procedure.
