Implant below the alveolar bone crest: will it cause problems?
Last Updated: May 09, 2016
I installed this implant in the mandibular right first molar site. The implant platform is located below the alveolar bone crest. Will this cause any problems in osseointegration? Should I anticipate recession of the surrounding bone? Should I anticipate deep periodontal pockets around the implant? The adjacent second molar is tipped mesially over the site for the future crown on the implant. Will this create any restorative problems for crown placement?
