Clinical examination revealed poor retentive features, recurrent caries, and exposed endodontic material rendering a poor prognosis for the remaining tooth root system. After comprehensive evaluation, as well as understanding important patient case expectations, a decision was made to remove the existing tooth and place an immediate implant with a staged\u2010provisional approach. To maintain the free gingival mid\u2010facial height, a sectional\u2010connective tissue graft technique was used concurrently with a custom emergence profile provisional to stabilize the gingiva immediately post\u2010implant placement.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients undergoing implant replacement of failing anterior maxillary teeth are at risk of esthetic complications. Marginal stability of the facial gingival is an important component of establishing and maintaining the final esthetic outcome. In cases where the initial hard or soft tissue thickness may put the patient at risk, combining soft and hard tissue augmentation with attention to emergence profile provisionalization appears to aid in the initial stability of the buccal free gingival margin. This report details the steps associated with a sectional connective tissue technique combined with emergence profile provisonalization and characterizes the gingival stability up to 2.5 years obtained with this approach.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/cap.10086","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,19]],"date-time":"2019-12-19T04:07:30Z","timestamp":1576728450000},"page":"123-129","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Sectional
