Abstract :
Maintaining the volume after tooth extraction with preservation techniques in the sense of primary prevention is not yet possible with the available materials. An innovative and less invasive technique was developed in order to prevent buccal bone plate resorption called as “socket – shield technique”.
The Idea of this technique is to leave a part of the root fragment on the buccal side in the course of immediate implant placement. Thus maintaining the normal periodontium and the gingival tissues which help in keeping the crestal bone on its original level
