To assure No Deviation of implant placement, Lindamann bur will be used to remove the most coronal of the buccal aspect (Fig.2, 3 *) of the thick lingual plate (L) during osteotomy. To reduce bone loss (Fig.4 *) associated with residual cement (Fig.4,5 arrowheads) of the tissue-level implants, a bone-level one (SM) will be used at #20. Check whether the nearby implant (#19) has infection clinically and bone graft if needed.
