Replacement of a Maxillary Right First Molar Using an Early Loading Protocol
Clinical Case Report
Clinical Case Report
In June 2002, a healthy and cooperative 42-year-old female patient was referred for consultation and for the treatment of a fractured maxillary left second premolar. The patient reported an uncomplicated medical history, significant only for seasonal allergies. She had been in the continuous care of a general dental practitioner at the University of Florida College of Dentistry for more than ten years, her recent dental history being restricted to routine operative dentistry and periodontal maintenance. Her plaque control and gingival health was considered for the most part to be excellent, and no intraoral periodontal probing depths exceeded 3 mm. Her esthetic demands were considered moderate to high, and she displayed a high smile line. Intraoral examination revealed a Class I malocclusion, characterized by minor tooth misalignment and midline disharmony, for which orthodontic therapy was recommended and rejected. Her gingival biotype was considered medium to thick.
