Removal of a Malpositioned Implant and Direct New Implant Placement with Simultaneous Contour Augmentation using GBR

A 35-year old female patient was referred to the Department of Oral Surgery and Stomatology at the University of Bern, Switzerland, for examination of an implant site that had exhibited clinical signs of slightly delayed wound healing. In addition, the referring clinician found no evidence for a facial bone wall when she raised a flap to gain access to the implant for abutment connection. Four months earlier, she had inserted a bone-level implant in a single-tooth gap, where the lateral incisor had been extracted due to a chronic periapical lesion on the mesial aspect of the root. Implant placement was combined with simultaneous bone augmentation using deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM, Bio-Oss®; Geistlich, Wolhusen, Switzerland) and a collagen membrane (Bio- Gide®; Geistlich), followed by primary wound closure. The patient also provided the postsurgical radiograph that displayed the implant with a 3.5-mm healing cap.

* General SAC assessment modifiers that are also part of the ERA. To avoid redundancy they are listed in this section even if no complete ERA has been made.

** Not applicable to the ERA of immediate placement cases and replaced by "Socket Integrity" listed below under "Surgical SAC Classification". For all other placement types this value is a classification determinant and listed here even if no complete ERA has been made.
