This article describes a case report of rehabilitation of missing mandibular premolar
using implant supported crown and a flapless surgery. A 23 year old female patient, with agenesis
of second premolar, was referred to the department of fixed prosthodontics at Dental Clinic
of Monastir. Comprehensive examination revealed that, an orthodontic treatment was set up
leading to space opening. The edentulous ridge was measured and it was suitable for adequate
dimensions of second premolar. The adjacent teeth were vital, free from caries and fillings.
Radiographic evaluation showed the feasibility of implant placement in the edentulous site. A
flapless surgery technique was performed for implant placement. The implant supported crown
was cemented using Zinc phosphate cement.
