Melillo describes repositioning an implant more distally to achieve a more distal prosthetic emergence and reports choosing immediate loading because of the stability obtained. A colleague shares another case with only 2 mm of cortical bone.
Let me show you this case, with implants at sites 24 and 25. After the initial placement, I used the Magnetic Mallet to remove the implant at site 25 and reposition it more distally by displacing the sinus as described above.

Vi mostro questo caso.
Impianti 24/25
Dopo un primo inserimento, grazie al MM ho rimosso l’impianto 25 e risposizionato più distale con la deformazione del seno come detto sopra
Today I used a light Mallet impulse—I had 2 mm of cortical bone—followed by graft material and placement of a 5 × 8.5 mm implant. The radiographic result looks encouraging; we will assess the clinical outcome over time. 😃

Oggi ho dato un colpetto di Mallet ( avevo 2 mm di corticale) e poi biomateriale ed impianto 5x 8,5. il risultato radiologico è simpatico, vedremo in futuro quello clinico😃
