Limited Interocclusal Clearance

A 45-year-old man has had trouble with the tooth #18 for long time.  First, the tooth needed RCT and crown retreatment several years ago (Fig.1).  Now there is 2nd caries underneath the crown (Fig.2).  After extraction and No Antibiotic, an IBS or Tatum implant will be placed (Fig.3).

Due to limited vertical height, the implant will be placed deep.
