The aim of the present study was to compare immediate (Im) versus delayed (De) placement of laser-treated
implants surface with switching platform to confirm the predictability and performance of this type of implant.
The implants were placed in pos exodontia and healed sites at the incisor, canine, premolar, and molar regions
of the maxilla or the mandible. A protocol was prepared in which patient age, sex, implant length, diameter, and
use of bone graft were recorded. The study included 44 GEASS Srl (Udine, Italy) implants with laser surface and
morse taper connection, placed in 27 patients (mean age: 56 years; range: 25–80 years).The survival rates were
100% in the Im group and in the De group. The patients were followed for a minimum of 12 months. Implants
with laser surface and morse connection presented when placed in fresh sockets showed similar results to
implants placed in mature bone after 12 months of follow-up.
Key Words: laser surface implants, morse taper connection, immediate versus delayed implants
INTRODUCTION
A
number of scientific works have shown
the predictability of osseointegrated in
implant dentistry that complies with
the biologic principles proposed by
Adell et al and others.1–3 Among these
principles was the need for complete healing of the
alveolar bone before placing an implant into a fresh
extraction socket, a process that usually requires 6 to
12 months. However, implants placed postextraction
have proven to be a successful, predictable treatment
modality.4–14 Some authors have argued that many
advantages can result from placing dental implants
into a fresh extraction socket. For example, it is easier
to position them because of existing reference
points, possible to preserve the alveolar bone and
contour of the ridge, and it offers advantages for the
patient including a shorter treatment time, reduction

in the number of surgical appointments, and less
morbidity.15,16
Placement of an implant into a fresh alveolus will
usually result in a gap between the occlusal part of the
implant and the bone walls. To ensure osseointegration of the entire implant, synthetic bone substitutes,
membranes, bone grafting, osteoconductive substances, or a combination of these have been used
to achieve bone formation in such defects. Autogenous bone and a variety of xenogenic graft materials
have been employed in conjunction with immediate
implantation, with many of them showing successful
results. Animal studies have indicated that osseointegration of immediately placed implants in extraction
sockets can be achieved without bone augmentation
procedures, and with a success rate comparable to
that of delayed implant placement.17–19 There are
certain disadvantages that could jeopardize the
success of immediate implant procedures, such as
lack of soft tissue closure over the extraction site.20
Otherwise the literature presents different aspects in macro and micro morphology of implants
with designs with the aim better performance. The
