A healthy 52-year-old woman presents with a failing 3-unit bridge, exhibiting mobility, infection, and bone resorption around tooth #16 (3). She reports pain during chewing.
Complementary exams reveal complete loss of bone support around the first molar and evidence of root resorption. Tooth #14 (5), which serves as one of the bridge abutments, has lost its periodontal support. The patient insists on leaving the clinic with teeth. The treatment plan involves performing a sinus lift using Augma Lift™, followed by immediate implant placement and immediate loading.
