Vol. 13 – Number 50 – 2022 IMPLANT DENTISTRY NOTEBOOK Case report Page 46-54 Method for maintenance of gingival architecture immediately after extraction – case report Lilian Juri Rezende de Lacerda1 Jeferson Alfredo Klingenfuss2 Felipe Rychuv2 Natálya Dias Rezende3 Everton Cocati Andrade4 Evelyn Júri Rezende de Lacerda5 Abstract A gingival harmony is an important element in the aesthetics of the smile, and for the success of the prosthetic treatment, there must be a correct relationship between gums and a form of treatment that allows the artificial tooth to emerge with a natural aspect of the tissue that restores visual harmony. When a dental element has an indication for extraction, but there is still a preserved interdental papillae and/or gingival contour, a clinical practice is a gentle treatment that can be performed either by a temporary crown, or by a personalized healer in cases that installed implant does not allow immediate loading. In this article, a clinical case is reported that aims to describe an alternative technique for healing the scar and provisional inspection that occurs after extraction, using fluid resin. The maintenance of gingival architecture by the technique avoided the need for procedures for manipulating of soft tissue, reducing cost, time, and trauma of treatment.
