Abstract
Aesthetic implant restoration in the anterior maxilla is a challenge for clinicians. Alveolar ridge and surrounding gingiva deficiencies aggravates implant placement in the aesthetic area. This case report describes a technique for aesthetic single implant placement with simultaneous bone grafting and soft tissue thickening. At the time of implant surgery, allogenic (Maxgraft, Botiss Biomaterials, Germany) and xenogenic bone substitute (Cerabone, Botiss Biomaterials, Germany) was used for bone grafting, soft tissues were augmented simultaneously with collagen tissue matrix derivate membrane (Mucoderm, Botiss Biomaterials, Germany). After 4 months during second stage surgery the implant was exposed. Subsequently healing abutment was replaced with provisional crown for gingival contouring. An individual zirconia abutment was made and a cemented full-ceramic crown was placed for final restoration. The 12-month follow-up check-up revealed a pleasing aesthetic treatment outcome, as well as clinically healthy peri-implant soft tissues. Radiological examination showed a stable bone crest with minor bone remodelling around the implant platform. The use of an collagen tissue matrix deriv...
