The implant is placed deeper ~ 1 mm, followed by a 5.5x3 mm healing abutment (Fig.6 (*: sinus lift)). There is faint bone graft around the apex of the implant 4 months postop (Fig.10). The implant sustains 25-30 Ncm torque when a 5.2x4(3) mm cemented abutment is placed. A permanent crown is cemented nearly 5 months postop (Fig.11).
