Abstract
A patient was left with a severe defect following the extraction of the right maxillary lateral and central incisors. A graft of epithelial and connective tissue was taken from the maxillary tuberosity and placed into the defect. This resulted in the filling of the defect and the correction of the esthetic problem.Keywords
