A 51-year-old woman lost the teeth #6 and 7 due to odontoma removal ~30 years ago.  The area was restored with a FPD.  The latter is removed with immediate implant at #8 8-9 months earlier.  Particulate bone graft does not repair the bone deficiency at #6, 7 (Fig.2,3), although the soft tissue looks bulky (Fig.1).
