When a tooth is lost, the alveolar bone undergoes a process of physiological remodeling, leading to specific anatomical changes in the quality and quantity of the bone surrounding the root socket. Dental implants have become essential in dentistry for replacing failing teeth and their supporting tissues, restoring both dental function and aesthetics. Recently, both immediate and delayed implant placements in fresh extraction sites have been recommended for managing tooth loss. For successful long-term outcomes with dental implants, several anatomical, aesthetic, functional, and biomechanical criteria must be met. The quality and quantity of hard and soft tissues at the recipient site are particularly crucial for the integration process and the long-term stability of peri-implant tissues.
