Abstract
A 37-year-old white man had a long-standing history of bone loss in the left maxillary arch that had resulted in extraction of the upper left first premolar. He had an obvious lack of buccal bone on palpation, as well as an area of gingival invagination that drained occasionally. The invagination in the soft tissue appeared to be scar tissue from either the extraction or from the recurrent drainage. There was no active drainage on his initial presentation. The maxillary canine, second premolar, and first molar were vital.
