Overview

The Socket Shield Technique represents a quiet yet profound shift in the philosophy of implant dentistry. Instead of removing a tooth entirely and attempting to rebuild what is lost, this technique embraces a more biologically respectful approach-preserving what nature has already created. Tooth extraction has long been associated with inevitable hard and soft tissue collapse, particularly in the esthetic zone. The socket shield technique emerged as a response to this limitation, offering a method that prioritizes tissue preservation over reconstruction. The book discusses patient selection, anatomical considerations, and the importance of meticulous surgical execution. It also addresses potential complications, limitations, and the importance of clinician experience. Rather than promoting the technique as a universal solution, it presents it as a powerful but selective tool, best used when biological conditions and clinical judgment align.
