Abstract
|
|
|
Implant placement for the upper anterior teeth is difficult compared to the posterior teeth, therefore careful consideration by the dental practitioner is necessary. To achieve successive implant placement, it is very important to place the implant fixture in the proper position. An implant prosthesis connected to a properly placed implant fixture can be expected to yield good results with regard to function as well as aesthetics. On the contrary, improper positioning of an implant can result in an unaesthetic, non-functional and weak implant with no bite force. In this case report, the upper central incisor was extracted due to severe root resorption and was restored with a dental implant. During the surgery, the implant placement was performed with a computer guided stent. After surgery, the aesthetics of the gingiva was adjusted and improved with a provisional restoration. Finally, additional gingival plastic surgery and gingival bleaching was performed and successful aesthetic treatment of the Maxilla central incisor was accomplished. With this case report, we hope to determine the position of implant fixture for functional and aesthetically ideal prosthesis implants and to evaluate the use of computer guided stents to promote the positioning of implants.
