title: Minimally Invasive Single-Implant Treatment in the Esthetic Zone.
abstract: Clinicians face significant challenges when placing single-tooth, implant-supported restorations in the esthetic zone. Understanding myriad factors, such as smile design, patient expectations, and hard- and soft-tissue responses, plays a vital role in achieving a predicable outcome. This article presents a case report demonstrating a minimally invasive approach, which combined immediate implant placement, hard- and softtissue augmentation, and immediate provisionalization in 1 visit.
