Vestibular Versus Trapezoid Flap in Immediate Implants

The vestibular socket therapy was introduced by Elaskary et al that allowed immediate implant placement and total socket rehabilitation at the same time in class 2 compromised sockets , that showed supreme esthetic and functional predictability over 1,2,3 years of follow up, and showed minimal or no post restorative mid facial recession . The Vestibular socket therapy (VST) entails socket augmentation through a minimally invasive vestibular access incision to allow the delivery of the grafting components thus bypass the deleterious effect of the classic mucoperiosteal flap reflection as well as the deleterious effect of the delay approach, regardless of the degree of socket compromise \[6-8\].
