The patient returns 9 months post extraction/socket preservation (Fig.3). The ridge is wide at #14 11 months post socket preservation. Access and bone expansion (BEB) starts with Magic Split, followed by Magic Expanders 3.0, 3.8 and 4.3 mm from 8 to 9 mm for sinus lift. No bone is removed for osteotomy. Instead bone condensation occurs. After placement of a 4.5x11 mm dummy FC implant (Fig.1 with sinus lift), a 5x9 mm Magicore is placed with >55 Ncm with cuff margin at the gingival margin (Fig.2); a 5.5x3 mm solid abutment tries in. There is no occlusal clearance; trimming of the solid abutment will be needed.
