ABSTRACT:Alveolar ridge preservation is a set of surgical techniques to preserve the volume of the alveolar ridge that exists at the time of extraction. The loss of height and alveolar thickness can be treated with alveolar preservation techniques, therefore, they have a better prognosis for placing a restoration, specifically an implant. Case report: A 61-year-old male patient diagnosed with a dental fracture and an insufficient clinical crown in the tooth 1.4 compromising its restoration, an alveolar bone preservation was performed with Bartee technique and a dental implant was placed with the healing screw immediately, avoiding stage II of healing, for which a satisfactory gingival result was obtained and without evidence of bone loss at 3 months. Conclusion: Today there are multiple alternatives for the placement of unitary dental implants, where the alveolar ridge preservation with Bartee technique provides multiple clinical benefits in the face of unfavorable scenarios for the placement of immediate implants.
