Abstract

The immense success in achieving excellent soft-tissue contours around implants placed in the esthetic zone with the PET procedures has opened up the possibility of performing it on multi-rooted teeth. However, the presence of two or more roots adds to the complexity of the case and needs special attention to achieve consistent results. In this article, the authors share their clinical experiences and describe the step-by-step procedure of performing socket shield procedures in premolars and molars. Case selection and risk factors are explained to prevent complications and failures.
