The implant is most likely placed in a good trajectory and position (Fig.14).  The gap between the buccal gingiva and the implant is large enough (green arrow) to supplement bone graft (green circles) after implant placement, if necessary.  In other word, the most coronal buccal threads (red line) will be covered by bone graft.  Red circles: bone graft placed prior to implant placement.
