Abstract

The success of rehabilitation with implants depends on a global planning, involving procedures in soft and hard tissues that aim at the possibility of performing a prosthetic rehabilitation with good aesthetic and functional results. This case is intended to report a clinical case of oral rehabilitation on short implants, in the posterior region of the mandible, associated with the Digital Work Flow and alteration of the gingival phenotype with Free Gingival Grafts on the right side and Subepithelial Connective Tissue Graft on the left side. The association between the use of short implants, change in gingival phenotype and digital flow proved to be favorable procedures in the rehabilitation of the posterior region of the mandible, resulting in increased predictability of the result and satisfaction with the treatment.
