Periodontal therapy was done to improve the gingival condition. The periodontally weak maxillary central incisors were extracted and dental implants placed in the same sockets with good retention and stability without any additional bone loss. Following complete osseointegration of the implants with the surrounding bone, cosmetically well blended ceramic crowns were fixed with good color match. This gave a natural-looking, pleasing, enhanced smile. The patient was very happy to have this complete rehabilitation that improved his smile and appearance and also he was able to bite foods well and speak easily.
