UF and 1-Piece Implants
A 76-year-old healthy woman is returning for #22 and 24 implant placement (Fig.1). Since the former has a long root and the latter a narrow one, UF and 1-piece implants (straight and angled) will be placed (Fig.2), respectively. She is active. It appears that there is no osteoporosis. The bone is expected to be lower than that of a younger man. The depth at #22 should be at least 22 mm (18 mm (implant length) + 2 mm (subcrestal) + 2 mm (gingival thickness). Splinted provisional is to be fabricated at #24 and 25.
