Do I have to place a membrane in this immediate implant case?
Last Updated: Jan 05, 2018
I placed an implant in the maxillary lateral incisor site immediately after extraction and did a small particulate bone graft. I may place a 5x3mm healing abutment. I will not be placing a temporary crown. Do I have to place a membrane over the graft?
