Abstract
Single tooth implant-supported restorations have become a common procedure for the restoration of missing teeth. This clinical report describes the treatment and long-term follow-up of 2 maxillary implant-supported crowns in the canine region placed after unsuccessful reimplantation and successful bone augmentation procedures. In spite of the complicated procedures presented, a good long-term clinical result was achieved.
