A 77-year-old man dislodges a bridge involving the teeth #11-13 five years ago (Fig.1). The tooth #13 is extracted and an immediate implant is placed. Since the bone height is limited, a large implant will be used. At the site of #12, a smaller (because of ridge atrophy) and longer implant will be placed. *: periapical radiolucency.
