Following sequential osteotomy, a 4x10 mm dummy implant is placed with stability and ~ 3.5 mm apical space (Fig.7 red line).  A final implant (4x11.5 mm) is placed subcrestal (except buccal, Fig.8).  With further placement of the implant, a 4.5x5.5(3) mm abutment and Vera graft are placed (Fig.9) prior to fabrication of an immediate provisional.  There is no gross bone loss 4.5 months postop (Fig.10).  There is shade mismatch when a porcelain-fused-Zirconia crown is tried in (Fig.11, as compared to Fig.1 PFM restorations).  The latter is corrected when a PFM crown is cemented (Fig.12 (6 months postop)).
