Abstract
Patient: The patient was a 47-year-old female who visited our hospital with a chief complaint of occlusal pain in the upper left molar region. At the initial visit, examination of the oral cavity showed a root fracture of the second left maxillary molar. We extracted the tooth and replaced it with dental implants.
Discussion: The treatment was planned using a study model, diagnostic wax-up, and preoperative computed tomography (CT) to minimize the surgical invasiveness of the treatment.
Conclusion: In this case, we treated the upper free-end edentulous space with dental implants and obtained a good prognosis.
