Abstract
Immediate implant placement and provisionalisation following tooth extraction have been documented as a predictable treatment modality. This case report illustrates immediate implant placement with immediate loading to replace failing teeth on lower front teeth region. The dental implant and provisional restoration provided the patient with immediate aesthetics, function, comfort, and most importantly preservation of tissues.
