A patient presented with a failing maxillary anterior tooth in the aesthetic zone associated with a missing buccal bone wall, representing a high-risk situation for immediate implant therapy. An atraumatic extraction followed by immediate implant placement was performed.

Due to the absence of the facial bone, the NOVAMag^® SHIELD was applied as a rigid protective barrier in a flapless minimally invasive approach, allowing controlled buccal contour augmentation using cerabone^® +HyA and preventing soft tissue collapse during healing. CTG from the palate was positioned and sutured in the pouch to enhance the buccal mucosal thickness.

Immediate temporization was used to support soft tissue shaping and preserve the emergence profile. After healing, stable peri-implant tissues and a preserved facial contour were achieved, resulting in a predictable and aesthetic final outcome.

The „Case Of The Month“ highlights every month a clinical case, which distinguished itself by the clinical results or the treatment concept in combination with the applied botiss biomaterials. The selection of the case is based on content relevance and quality of the documentation.
