Abstract
Replacement of missing or hopeless teeth in the esthetic zone is one of dentistry's most critical challenges. In the past, multiple surgical procedures have been needed to reconstruct compromised extraction sites. The surgeries have been associated with long healing times and increased morbidity, all the while patients are using either fixed or removable interim restorations. The procedures identified in this paper minimize surgical operating times, healing times, and delays in obtaining definitive restorations by combining multiple surgical procedures in one visit. The procedures are technique sensitive. This particular patient has been followed for 1 year post-operatively with clinical photographs and CBCT scans. Excellent clinical results were obtained. Benefits and limitations of the procedures have also been identified.
