As planned, two implants are placed with insertion torque ~ 50 Ncm (Fig.4: 5x13 and 5x11.5 mm for #30 and 31, respectively). *: mesial and distal sockets.

The patient returns for final restoration 3.5 months postop; it appears that the mesial and distal sockets of the site of #31 decrease in size and increase in bone density (Fig.6).
