Abstract

The optimal timing of dental implant placement in periodontally compromised patients remains controversial due to concerns regarding bone preservation and implant stability. Therefore, it is of interest to compare the clinical outcomes of immediate versus delayed dental implant placement in such patients. A total of 200 participants were randomly allocated to Group A (immediate placement) and Group B (delayed placement). Implant success rates, bone preservation, soft tissue health, implant stability, and patient satisfaction were evaluated. Although both groups showed high success rates, delayed implant placement demonstrated superior bone preservation, greater implant stability, and improved long-term functional outcomes.
