The peri-implant space (Fig.3) is filled with bone graft (Fig.4 *).  The apical portion of the socket appears to have reduced 4 months postop (Fig.14).  When the patient returns 1.5 years post cementation, there is increased bone density next to the coronal portion of the implant, equivalent to the bone graft (Fig.15 *).  The crestal bone loss remains 2.5 years post cementation (Fig.17 *), although there is no sign of periimplantitis.   Oral hygiene is poor.   There is no change in the soft or hard tissues 3 years 8 months post cementation (Fig.18).
