Bone volume and density seem to increase 4.5 and 10.5 months post cementation (Fig.20,21, as compared to Fig.15), although the buccal plate remains as concave as shown in Fig.18.  A small healing abutment is placed because the implant is placed distal (Fig.24 (4.5x3 mm)).  An angled abutment should be tried and #15 crown will be redone.  Impression will be taken when the gingiva heals around the provisional crowns.  Faint bone forms around the 1st implant thread (<; regraft may be unnecessary).
