4. Dental history:
- October 2005: #36 removal

6. Chief complaint: Discomfort at implant 37 area
Due to total lack of osseointegration, the bridge was cut off on #35 crown and the implant was removed.
Two implants (Ø4.0X7.3mm on #36 & Ø5.0X5.0 mm on #37) were immediately replaced on the same day and higher than 40Ncm of sufficient stability was able to be achieved.
