After placement of PRF membrane and bone graft (allograft, autogenous bone and Osteogen, Fig.3 *), a 6x9 mm IBS implant is placed with insertion torque of 30 Ncm.  It appears that the fins of the implant slice into the bone at high magnification for engagement.  Following further placement of the implant, bone graft is packed into the distal portion of the socket (Fig.4 <).  The mesial gingiva is so thick that it is impossible to place bone graft mesial to the implant.

When an implant is placed at #13, extend the incision to the mesial of #15 for bone graft.
