Preservation of residual bone dimension for immediate implantation using horizontal socket shield: A case report
Mohamad El Moheb, Mohammed Ghazi Sghaireen, Rakhi Issrani, Muhammad Nadeem Baig

TL;DR
This case report shows that a horizontal partial extraction method can help preserve bone structure after tooth extraction.
Contribution
The study demonstrates the effectiveness of horizontal socket shield in preserving residual bone dimensions.
Findings
One-year follow-up showed no vertical bone loss in the patient.
Minor implant deviation was observed, confirming the method's effectiveness.
The case supports the potential of horizontal partial extraction in bone preservation.
Abstract
Vertical bone loss post-extraction is influenced by inflammatory responses and bone remodeling. Horizontal partial extraction Therapy helps preserve bone by preventing additional resorption. A 50-year-old patient with a fractured incisor was treated using horizontal partial extraction therapy with a root form R3510 implant. One-year follow-up showed no vertical bone loss and minor implant deviation, confirming its effectiveness. This case highlights Horizontal partial extraction's potential in maintaining bone structure and calls for further research.
