SYNCRYSTALLIZATION IN IMMEDIATE IMPLANT PROVISIONALISATION: A REVIEW

Background: Syncrystallization, also known as intraoral welding or acrylic splinting, has emerged as a technique to rigidly connect multiple dental implants and reduce micromotion during immediate loading. This review examines evidence on its biomechanical effectiveness, clinical outcomes, technique, benefits, and limitations.

Conclusions: Syncrystallization is a predictable means of immediate implant provisionalisation when performed by experienced clinicians. Further randomized studies and standardized protocols are required to validate long-term success and cost-effectiveness.
