Treating Dehiscence During Implant Placement and Loading on Angled Abutment in Maxillary Lateral Incisor Region: A Case Report

  • Clinical Report
  • Published:
The Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society

Abstract

The primary factor causing recession is the morphology and anatomy of the dentition. The facial bony plate overlying the root is usually very thin. The complete absence of bone over the facial root surface is referred to as dehiscence. Such buccal bone defects in case of implant dentistry threaten the survival of dental implant. Many surgical techniques are introduced to enhance alveolar bone volume for placing the dental implants. Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is one such established surgical technique for correcting buccal dehiscence defects, along with the use of various barrier membranes for the same. This case report describes an implant placement in the maxillary left lateral incisor region showing dehiscence on the labial cortical plate, along with bone graft and GTR membrane.
