Abstract
Introduction: In the context of tooth extraction, this clinical practice is common for dentists, with the main causes of caries, periodontal disease, and coronal-radicular fractures. The choice for rehabilitation with implants has been growing, and to be carried out, it needs alveolar bone preservation at the implant site and adequate gingival contour, especially in aesthetic regions. However, the new techniques and instruments for minimally traumatic extraction still need to be analyzed, as little research has evaluated the success rate and limitations of these devices. Objective: It was developed a systematic review to highlight the importance of minimally traumatic tooth extraction for dental implants and aesthetics. Methods: The PRISMA Platform systematic review rules were followed. The search was carried out from November 2024 to January 2025 in the Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Scielo, and Google Scholar databases. The quality of the studies was based on the GRADE instrument and the risk of bias was analyzed according to the Cochrane instrument. Results and Conclusion: 130 articles were found, 32 articles were evaluated in full and 25 were included and developed in the present systematic review study. Considering the Cochrane tool for risk of bias, the overall assessment resulted in 21 studies with a high risk of bias and 32 studies that did not meet GRADE and AMSTAR-2. Most studies did not show homogeneity in their results, with X2=81.6%>50%. It was concluded that the use of precise and minimally traumatic techniques enabled satisfactory and functional aesthetic results, as well as improving the patient's aesthetics and self-esteem. The immediate implant placement procedure after tooth extraction preserves bone height and thickness, reduces treatment time and cost, in addition to maintaining the gingival architecture, being important for the aesthetic success of future prosthetic rehabilitation. Also, it presents success rates comparable to implants in fully healed edges, the extraction must be done in a minimally traumatic way, to preserve the maximum bone tissue. The horizontal defects present after the installation of the immediate implant, if they are less than or equal to 3mm, will heal with complete bone filling. However, if they are larger than 3mm, bone graft material and/or membrane should be used so that there is bone healing.
