Following 3 more turns of the implant (~ 20 Ncm), bone graft and heavy buccal reduction of the coronal end of the abutment, an immediate provisional is bonded to the tooth #9 (Fig.4) and splinted to the tooth #11 with a twisted wire (Fig.5). To increase stability and reduce reduction, a 3 mm 1-piece implant could be used with 15 degree abutment.
