The socket-shield technique for avoiding postextraction tissue alteration was first described in 2010. The technique was developed for hopeless teeth in anterior esthetic sites but has not yet been described for molar sites. Managing postextractive ridge changes in the posterior region by prevention or regeneration remains a challenge. The socket shield aims to offset these ridge changes wherever possible, preserving the patient's residual tissues at immediate implants. This technique report describes the molar socket-shield step by step.
Socket-shield 技术可避免拔牙后组织改变，该技术于 2010 年首次被描述。该技术最初是为了前牙美学区的无希望保留的牙齿而开发的，但尚未在前磨牙区描述。通过预防或再生来管理后牙区拔牙后牙槽嵴的改变仍然是一个挑战。Socket-shield 旨在尽可能抵消这些牙槽嵴的改变，在即刻种植时保留患者的剩余组织。本技术报告逐步描述了磨牙 Socket-shield 技术。
