Clinically, the tooth was discolored. A radiograph reveals external cervical root resorption and a horizontal crown fracture.  The tooth was extracted using a root elevator to minimize bone damage, so that the buccal bone was preserved completely. An immediate implant was placed into the palatal bone area, ensuring that connection is at the cingulum area of the future crown, and the head of the implant is around 3-4mm below the zenith of the buccal gingival margin. An immediate, screw-retained crown, was fabricated chair side, using a Temporary abutment.  After 6 weeks of healing, an impression was taken, and a final crown fabricated.    ![Picture1 DG - Nachum Samet](https://blog.adin-implants.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Picture1%20DG%20-%20Nachum%20Samet.png?width=400&height=521&name=Picture1%20DG%20-%20Nachum%20Samet.png "Picture1 DG - Nachum Samet") *Pre-operative x-ray* ### Treatment Plan Extraction, immediate placement and loading, final crown. ### **![Unifit](https://blog.adin-implants.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Unifit.jpg?width=268&height=301&name=Unifit.jpg)** ### **Description of Surgical Procedure** Following standard anesthetic, the tooth was extracted using a root elevator. A sharp-tip drill was used to penetrate the palatal socket wall, and then was enlarged using a 2.8 two-step drill. The [UniFit](https://www.adin-implants.com/unifit/) 3.5mm implant was placed using an Adin implant surgical Driver.          ![Picture2 DG - Nachum Samet](https://blog.adin-implants.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Picture2%20DG%20-%20Nachum%20Samet.png?width=400&height=514&name=Picture2%20DG%20-%20Nachum%20Samet.png "Picture2 DG - Nachum Samet") *UniFit implant placement*     ### **Description of** Restorative Procedure An intra-oral scanner was used to send patient’s and implant's data to the lab. Using CAD/CAM technology, a Zirconia, screw retained crown was fabricated, coated with Felspathic porcelain.      ### Conclusion and Final Result Very stable implant-abutment connection.   ![panorama](https://blog.adin-implants.com/hubfs/panorama.jpg "panorama")     Acknowledgement: Temir Heker Dent, Dental Laboratory, Tel-Aviv, Israel.    ### Want to learn more about UniFit implant?  [Click Here](https://www.adin-implants.com/unifit/)   ---     ![Dr. Nachum Samet](https://blog.adin-implants.com/hubfs/Nachum-Samet-150x150-1.jpg) ### About the Author: [Dr. Nachum Samet](https://blog.adin-implants.com/author/dr-nachum-samet) *Dr. Nachum Samet is a multi-awarded Professor at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine, where he acted as the Director of Pre-Doctoral Prosthodontics and also held a degree of Assistant Professor of Restorative Dentistry and Biomaterials.
