case_images: The initial approach was conservative aiming to keep the upper front by means of composite fillings (Figures 3(a) and 3(b)).

case_images: The patient preferred not to involve these restorations in the present anterior treatment and limited it to place only two implants in the lateral incisors' positions (Figure 4).
case_images: Stage one: implants placed with SST in the lateral incisors' sites and the immediate temporary bridge on the abutment teeth.

case_images: Finally, a temporary acrylic bridge was cemented onto the four abutment teeth 13-11 and 21-23 (Figure 5).
case_images: Stage two: partial extraction of the remaining teeth and placement of the second provisional onto the uncovered implants.
