Abstract
The purpose of this case report is to compare the mucosal change that occurs at the coronal aspect on the posterior teeth with commercial healing abutment (HA) and sealing socket abutment (SSA). A total of 4 cases are introduced in the present case report. Two cases of immediate implant using HA (one premolar and one molar) and two cases using SSA (one premolar and one molar) method are compared. Intra-oral scanned stereolithographic (STL) images are used to compare the horizontal and vertical change before extraction and 6 months post-surgery. Less horizontal and vertical changes were observed when SSAs are used compared to HAs. With the aid of digital dentistry, SSA is a prompt and effective method to maintain peri-implant mucosal contour after the immediate implantation in the posterior site.
