Replacement of Two Central Incisors with Non-Splinted Crowns on Bone-Level Implants
A 27-year-old female patient was referred to the Clinic of Oral Surgery and Stomatology of the University of Bern due to acute pain in the region of her two maxillary central incisors. The patient was in good general health. She reported a bicycle accident approximately 5 years earlier in which teeth 11 and 21 had been traumatized but neither fractured nor displaced. Several weeks after the accident, endodontic treatment was performed on both central incisors, although the patient did not recall the precise reasons for this decision. About 2 years ago, non-vital bleaching had been conducted, in accordance with the “walking-bleach” principle, due to progressive discoloration of teeth 11 and 21.

* 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.
