title: Complicated comprehensive reconstruction: report of a case.
abstract: This patient presented an interesting problem surgically from the standpoint of placement of implants immediately following removal of periodontally involved teeth at which time it was necessary to completely debride the alveoli. A 20-year history of smoking mitigated the prognosis in this particular case. Prophylactic antibiotics were used perioperatively, and his healing was uneventful. The prosthetic rehabilitation also details a specific technique to reproduce superior anterior esthetics to retain virtually the same appearance in the final implant retained fixed bridge. The case also demonstrates the efficacy of immediate implant placement and augmentation of the maxilla for adequate prosthetic management.
