We explore how he decides between immediate implant placement, ridge preservation, and guided bone regeneration (GBR), depending on the clinical situation and defect morphology.

**Together, we discuss:

Dr. Lanis also reflects on his academic journey at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine, his role in international implant education, and his experience speaking at major events such as the ITI World Symposium.

This conversation combines practical clinical experience with advanced regenerative concepts and real-world decision-making in implant dentistry.

Successful implant outcomes begins at the moment of tooth extraction. In this expert conversation, implant surgeon and researcher Larissa Steigmann explains why socket management and alveolar ridge preservation are essential for long term implant stability and predictable aesthetic outcomes.

The discussion explores a practical structured socket classification and decision-making approach, that helps clinicians diagnose extraction sockets and choose the appropriate treatment strategy. From intact sockets to severely compromised sites, the session covers how clinicians can combine biomaterials to preserve bone volume and support future implant placement.

Key clinical topics include ridge preservation protocols, the role of volume stable bone grafts such as cerabone, and how barrier solutions like permamem and the magnesium based membrane, the NOVAMag SHIELD can support predictable bone regeneration in compromised sockets.

The conversation also highlights the potential of advancing regenerative dentistry through the use of SHIELD in compromised sockets in conjunction with immediate implant placement.
