The CBCT showed excessive bone loss around the anterior incisors with a small area of periapi- cal radiolucency around the LL1. A cross-sectional view showed thick well developed cortical plates with very lit- tle lingual concavity. Due to the good bone height, and min- imal pathology, immediate im- plant placement was planned. Due to the patients’ bone loss the lower incisors had drifted, giving a less than de- sirable tooth position. One of the patients main com- plaints was the gaps which had appeared between the lower incisors and the uneven appearance of the in- cisal edges. To aid implant place- ment in the correct angula- tion, a Cerec Blu-Cam image was taken and manipulated so that the lower tooth positions were in harmony with the rest of the dentition. This pro- posal was then overlaid onto the CBCT scan and was used to facilitate implant planning. The aim was to provide the patient with a screw retained bridge with access holes though the lingual aspects of the lower incisors, whilst maintaining a sound margin of safety from the lingual cortical Maximum Intensity Projection Sirona Galileos A CBCT with a Cerec Blu-Cam overlay showing the ideal final result ‘Due to the patients bone loss the lower incisors had drifted, giving a less than desirable tooth po- sition.’ Stage 1 implant placement with healing abutments in place Presentation at eight weeks
