## Abstract
Restoring missing teeth in the esthetic zone is a challenging task in implant dentistry. A predictable solution must deliver not only functional stability but also satisfying esthetics. This case demonstrates the use of [Alpha-Bio Tec.'s NICE™](https://www.alpha-bio.net/en-int/nice?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post) narrow diameter implant, combined with a Ti-base and [CAD/CAM technology](https://alpha-bio.net/en-int/cadcam?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post), to meet the expectations of this young patient.
## **Case Overview**
A young female patient presented with a congenitally missing tooth (#22). With high esthetic demands and a narrow ridge, the treatment required meticulous planning and performing the restoration of both function and a natural smile. [The NICE™](https://www.alpha-bio.net/en-int/nice?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post) narrow diameter implant (D3.2 x L11.5 mm) was selected due to its ability to adapt to limited ridge dimensions.
Treatment Workflow
1. **Initial Assessment**: A CBCT scan and clinical evaluation confirmed a narrow ridge, which posed a challenge for implant placement. The treatment plan included bone grafting, soft tissue management, and temporary crown immediately engaged to the implant.
2. **Implant Placement**: [The NICE™](https://www.alpha-bio.net/en-int/nice?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post) narrow diameter implant was installed in the position of the missing tooth (#22). Bone grafting, covered by a collagen membrane, was performed simultaneously.
3. **Soft Tissue Management**: To optimize the esthetic outcome, connective tissue grafting was carried out, improving the soft tissue biotype and contributing to a natural crown emergence profile.
4. **Immediate Provisionalization**: A provisional crown was placed on a Ti-base immediately following implant placement. This step, was a part of the development of the emergence profile.
5. **Final Restoration**: Following healing phase, the definitive screw-retained crown was fabricated using [CAD/CAM technology](https://alpha-bio.net/en-int/cadcam?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post). The precise fit and customized design ensured excellent function, esthetics, and occlusal harmony.
### **Why NICE™ Narrow Diameter Implants?**
[The NICE™ narrow diameter implant](https://www.alpha-bio.net/en-int/nice?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post) is designed to address the challenges of narrow ridges and high esthetic requirements:
- **Adaptability**: The 3.2 mm diameter is ideal for cases with limited bone volume, allowing for predictable outcomes without a possible need for extensive ridge augmentation.
- **Good primary Stability**: Despite its narrow size, NICE™ implants offer excellent primary stability, essential for immediate loading.
- **Esthetic Results**: When combined with a Ti-base and [CAD/CAM technology](https://alpha-bio.net/en-int/cadcam?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post), [NICE™ implants](https://www.alpha-bio.net/en-int/nice?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post) enable highly customized restorations that blend with neighboring natural teeth.
### Clinical Results
The patient achieved a beautiful, natural-looking restoration that met both functional and esthetic demands. The soft tissue around the implant demonstrated excellent healing and adaptation, supported by the connective tissue grafting and previously preparation steps.
### Conclusion
This case demonstrates the effectiveness of [NICE™ narrow diameter implants](https://www.alpha-bio.net/en-int/nice?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post) in restoring esthetic zone deficiencies with limited ridge dimensions. By combining precise implant placement, soft tissue management, and [CAD/CAM technology](https://alpha-bio.net/en-int/cadcam?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=weekly+post), clinicians can deliver predictable, high-quality results that exceed patient expectations.
