Transitioning some implants and many teeth
A patient was referred for reconstructive therapy. The situation was made more difficult at the outset by some implants which were malpositioned and failing. These were removed by counter-torquing and then immediately replaced with new implants set in a more suitable position. Considerable bone augmentation was required and provided.

Recovery of a maxillary central incisor region with socket regeneration, soft tissue augmentation and emergence profile development
Extraction of a maxillary central incisor often leads to a considerable loss of hard and soft tissue structures in the region. This case shows a remarkable recovery following hard and soft tissue grafting, emergence profile development and final restoration.

Recovery of an extraction site with orthodontics, implant therapy, augmentation and emergence profile development
The patient lost a front tooth as a child, now at the age of 30 he wants a replacement. But all sorts of deformities have set in. The adjacent teeth moved, the ridge shrank and he also has a major skeletal and dental malocclusion. Recovering the situation takes time. New technology helps with providing the result.

Replacing two failing maxillary central incisors
This case shows how two maxillary central incisors were replaced by dental implants. This was one of our first Immediate Transition Cases with therapy being started 17 years ago. It has been very successful, but therapy was multi-staged and complex. Ways of improving the workflow are discussed.
