Finally a 5.5x7 mm IBS implant is placed with 30 Ncm (Fig.5). After placement of Osteogen plug in the apical portion of the sockets, allograft/Osteogen is placed in the remaining sockets (Fig. 5 *). The latter is partially contained by a 6.5x4(3) mm abutment (A) and ultimately by an immediate provisional.
The implant is mobile 4 months postop (Fig.6). A 6x2 mm healing abutment is placed. Although the implant remains mobile 6 months postop, the bone seems to have become denser around the implant (Fig.7-9). A healing screw is placed.
The implant seems to have osteointegrated 8 months postop (Fig.10). Impression is taken following re-placing a 6.5x4(3) mm abutment.
