Curriculum vitae
Patient Data
The patient is a 47-year-old, healthy male.
The bone in the area of 46 would be considered Type 2 bone
(Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4).
Diagnosis
Edentulous, 46 area after cutting a bridge (45-47) and temporary crown on 45
Treatment Plan
The optimal treatment plan was determined to be an implant retained crown to replace 46
Procedure / Method
Implant planning by a computer-aided planning system (Figures 5 and 6).
Preparing of the mucosal flap (Figure 7).
Punch-marking to define the implant position (Figure 8).
Pilot-drilling (Figure 9).
Extension-drilling in steps uo to final drill (Figure 10).
Procedure / Method - continued
Thread-cutting by hand using corresponding thread-cutter and a ratchet (Figure 10).
Setting of the RatioPlant Classic implant ∅4.2 mm and length 10mm (Figure 11 and 12)
A corresponding cover screw was now placed and hand tightened.
A mucosal transplant was taken from soft palate and fixed inside to the mucoperiosteal flap and filled with bone graft before
closing. The wound was closed using 3/0 plain gut suture. The patient was recalled one week later, and the soft tissue was well
healed.
Control by radiography after closing

CASE STUDY
Follow-Up
The patient was recalled four months later, and the implant was checked clinically and radiographically. The implant was deemed integrated, and the prosthetic crown was then fabricated.
Results
The implant has been under function for 12 months and has caused no bone loss or other
complications. The gingiva is pink and healthy, with no perio pocketing.
Conclusion
I feel the RatioPlant Implant System is a well-designed and easy to use implant delivery system, as all parts and instruments functioned extremely well. The implant has integrated well, and the tissue response has been excellent. I would expect this implant to function for many years without any complications.
