Abstract

This clinical report presents a two-step protocol for the rehabilitation of a missing maxillary left central incisor using autogenous bone harvested from the mandibular symphysis. Due to insufficient alveolar bone volume, ridge augmentation was performed followed by delayed implant placement. A monocortical block graft was secured with a mini plate, and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) was used to enhance healing. After osseointegration, a ceramic crown was placed with emphasis on esthetic outcomes, including preservation of the patient’s natural diastema. The procedure demonstrated effective bone regeneration, favorable implant stability, and satisfactory esthetics with minimal morbidity.
