Clinical edition: Technique over timing in posterior immediate implants with Dr. Algirdas Puisys (video version)

In this special Straumann ProTalk Clinical episode from the International Aesthetic Days in Portugal, Dr. Algirdas Puisys explains how he defines success in posterior immediate implants - targeting a 30° emergence profile and treating 45° as a critical limit. He shares his "aha" moment that immediate implant risk depends more on technique than timing, reflects on early mistakes with oversized implants, and discusses today's priorities: digital workflows, soft-tissue-first thinking, and conservative peri-implantitis management.
