**5.2 Implant placement after tooth extraction and residual alveolar ridge augmentation: two-phase approach**

This example (**Figure 11**) represents a case of a patient with severe periodontitis (horizontal and vertical bone loss) affecting two molar teeth. In the first visit, extraction of the two molar teeth ensued followed by a thorough curettage. Additionally, bone augmentation with sticky bone was performed. As a bone graft, Novocor plus bone was used. Nine months later, one implant was placed in the augmented region.
