periapical radiographs taken initial consultation re — **Figure 2**Periapical radiographs taken at initial consultation, showing a restored dental implant in position 21 (FDI-Notation) with no obvious signs of peri-implantitis. That restored implant carried a two-crown distal cantilever bridge

standard occlusal radiograph taken initial consultat — **Figure 3**Standard occlusal radiograph taken at initial consultation. The orifices of bilateral nasopalatine canals can be seen clearly apical to the central incisor teeth—the incisive canals: one at the apex of the implant and the other at the apex of natural tooth 11

clinical presentation initial consultation displayin — **Figure 4**Clinical presentation at initial consultation displaying the erythematous buccal mucosa at implant position 21 (FDI-Notation)

classical labial glove reflection buccal mucosa — **Figure 7**Classical labial “glove” reflection of buccal mucosa displaying the lack of osteogenesis of the xenograft at the buccodistal surface of the implant in position 21 with the lack of coverage of the implant surface

implant has been simply unscrewed minimal — **Figure 8**The implant has been simply “unscrewed” with minimal removal torque applied via Adams Orthodontic Pliers

probing implantotomy site demonstrate apical portion — **Figure 9**Probing of the implantotomy site to demonstrate that the apical portion was in the nonresistant nasopalatine canal

xenograft easily debrided osteotomy site display — **Figure 10**The xenograft was easily debrided from the osteotomy site to display the very patent aberrant canal present between the nasopalatine duct and the aberrant vascular canal

membrane bio gide has been secured under — **Figure 11**The membrane Bio-Gide has been secured under the palatal tissue at the operative site. Bio-Gide has also been placed at the perforation of the NPD and the distal opening of the conduit inferior to the multiple foramina. The xenograft Bio-Oss has been packed into the “conduit” and then used to augment the deficient buccal bony surface

bio gide has been folded over bio oss — **Figure 12**Bio-Gide has been folded over the Bio-Oss granules

labial glove has been replaced secured — **Figure 13**The “labial glove” has been replaced and secured with interrupted 5.0 PROLENE sutures

temporary adhesive bridge has been placed — **Figure 14**Temporary adhesive bridge has been placed, replacing teeth 21 and 22 and protecting the surgical site
