description | This case report emphasizes the complexities involved in dental implant placement within the anterior esthetic zone, focusing on the integration of advanced surgical techniques and meticulous prosthetic design for optimal esthetic and functional results. A 28-year-old male presented with the absence of the upper left central incisor, which had been extracted 5 years prior due to fracture. Clinical and radiographic assessments indicated normal alveolar bone levels; however, the esthetic demands required a specialized approach. The surgical procedure included a papilla preservation flap, immediate implant placement, and bone grafting to prevent peri-implant resorption and achieve an optimal emergence profile. An Osstem implant and resorbable Xenograft were utilized to address the thin labial bone. Over 4 months, successful osseointegration occurred, followed by the placement of a permanent crown. This case illustrates that dental implant restoration in the anterior esthetic zone can effectively address functional and esthetic challenges, leading to high patient satisfaction with the final restoration’s natural appearance. |
