When the patient experiences a little pain as the DL implant is being placed deeper with minimal local anesthetic, CT is taken. In fact the latter is between the apices of the teeth #1 and 2 (Fig.3 (L: lingual view of 3D image)). The implant is later placed deeper with minor angular change as well as more anesthetic. There is an advantage to place the miniimplants apically; there is more space.
