GBR and Soft-Tissue Augmentation Following Explantation to Rehabilitate a Soft- and Hard-Tissue Defect
It is sometimes necessary to remove and replace compromised implants. This case is a clear example of the need for multiple steps to achieve an optimal therapeutic result for patients with non-salvageable implants. It illustrates how the lost soft and hard tissues were rebuilt in a sequence that improved the healing of the hard tissues and assured their long-term stability. The 35-year-old healthy patient presented with clinical attachment loss on the proximal and lingual surfaces of the natural dentition. Some gingival recession was present on natural teeth, particularly in the posterior sextants (S1, S3, S4, and S6).
