With new technology and
flapless techniques, we can avoid having to cut and stitch the gums, so there's no swelling and bruising.
A literature review showed that survival rates reported for small-diameter implants are similar to those reported for standard width implants, and these survival rates did not appear to differ between studies that used
flapless or flap reflection techniques.
Immediate loading in the maxilla using
flapless surgery, implants placed in predetermined positions and prefabricated provisional restorations: a retrospective 3-year clinical study.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the rate of canine retraction in maxillary first premolar extraction patients with or without
flapless cortical perforations (FCPs) made with the help of a miniscrew.
SmILE offers patients a safe and effective treatment with rapid recovery, while providing the advantages of
flapless surgery.
Effect of Platform Shift/Switch on Crestal Bone Levels and Mucosal Profile Following
Flapless Surgery and Crestal/Subcrestal Implant Placement.
"I always went out and bought it myself and put it on," said Bryant, who didn't know it was an option in college and then got used to the
flapless helmet by the time he got to the majors.

Flapless treatment: according to the anatomy of the osseous sites, the sonotrode (Sonocare 300, Soring GmbH, Justus-von-Liebig-Ring 2-25451 Quickborn, Germany) was inserted both intrasulcularly and transgingivally (smallest tip is 0.8 mm): intrasulcularly, in the cases of three wall defects, and transgingivally in cases of one to two wall defects (Figure 1).
The risks inherent in immediate loading techniques such as a minimally traumatic and
flapless surgery, a 3D implant position, a gap filling, and its provisioning may not prevent postexodontic alveolar changes, and recessions may compromise the gingival margin and longevity of supporting and protective tissues [14].
This study was undertaken to evaluate the refractive outcome and complication profile of sutureless, glueless,
flapless, intrascleral fixation of PCIOLs in pediatric patient presenting with congenital ectopia lentis.
