Peripheral Giant-cell Granuloma Associated with Peri-implant Tissues
Clinical Case Report
Clinical Case Report
The patient presented with root fracture of the right central incisor with associated distal bone loss. After sectioning and extraction of the fractured root the distal papilla was lost, creating an esthetic compromise. This case demonstrates an option for treating this esthetic compromise. Early (Type 2) implant placement was performed at 7 weeks with simultaneous horizontal and vertical augmentation using Bio-Oss and Bio-Gide (Geistlich). After 3 months a connective tissue graft was performed at the time of implant exposure. Despite these surgical procedures, the papilla could not be recovered. As a result, a prosthetic solution was necessary.
