The patient, 58 years old, comes to our observation to improve the aesthetics of her smile, compromised by the loss of the element 1.2 following a trauma. The element was restored at the time with a very large bridge that involved almost the whole sector 1. We decided for the restoration of the element with a Prama RF implant, the repositioning of the parabolas in the coronal sense, the reconstruction of the distal crowns and small conservative interventions for the benefit of the final aesthetics. After 2 years, the hard and soft tissues are stable and healthy, and the patient is very pleased for the aesthetics obtained.
“In a position like the lateral incisor, the particular morphology of the Prama neck demonstrates success because it combines the mechanical resistance of a 3.80 implant and the minimum space occupied by the neck in the prosthetic area. Also, in this case the possibility of partially submerging the neck of the implant allows an excellent vestibular regeneration.”
