Abstract

Implantology has become an integral part of dentistry. Initially implant dentistry was surgically driven with implant placement thatwas determined by the available bone. Following this although osseo integration was achieved, the outcome many a times didn't fulfil the basic function anaesthetics. The correction after implant placement with help of angulated abutments in anterior region will produce undesirable aesthetics. Prosthetically driven implant placement will help in the overall function and aesthetic. This case report describes managing a horizontal defect in the anterior mandibular region with help of allogenic graft material and establishing the prosthetically driven approach.
