When a 3x14(2) mm 1-piece implant is placed (Fig.2) palatally, there are peri-implant spaces coronally (arrowheads, palatal defect).

Two months postop, peri-implant space remains (Fig.14); the provisional and implant are stable.

The peri-implant space seemingly disappears 4.5 months (Fig.30 (8 months postop)) and 11 months (Fig.31) post cementation.

There is no bone loss (Fig.32) 2 years post cementation.
