INCISORS & CANINES

Front-Tooth Dental Implants in Boston

Replacing a front tooth requires careful coordination of surgery,
esthetics, and function. Implant position, available bone, gum
contours, tooth shape, shade, translucency, bite, and the patient’s
smile are considered together before treatment begins.

01

Thin Facial Bone

The bone covering the front surface of an upper incisor root can be
extremely thin. Preserving this bone is important because it helps
support the gum contour around the future implant crown.

02

Precise Implant Position

Front teeth often have an angled relationship between the visible
crown and the natural root. Implant position therefore has to be
planned around both the available bone and the intended position of
the final ceramic tooth.

03

Gum Architecture

The height and shape of the gum around a front tooth strongly affect
how natural the final result appears. Preserving the tissues from the
beginning can be especially important in patients with a visible
smile line.

04

Smile & Function

The final restoration must reproduce tooth shape, surface texture,
shade, translucency, and proportions while also fitting comfortably
within the patient’s bite.

WHEN CLINICALLY APPROPRIATE

Immediate Implant Placement

When the anatomy and condition of the extraction site allow it,
Dr. Andrews may remove the damaged tooth and place the dental implant
during the same visit rather than waiting several months before a
second implant surgery.

Combining extraction and implant placement can shorten the overall
treatment process and reduce the number of separate surgical
procedures. For the patient, that can mean fewer surgical
appointments, fewer recovery periods, and less time spent moving
through repeated phases of treatment and healing.

Immediate placement is not appropriate for every site. The decision
depends on available bone, the condition of the socket, infection,
implant stability, gum anatomy, and the planned final restoration.


One Coordinated Visit


Tooth removal and implant placement may be combined when the
clinical conditions are favorable.


Fewer Surgeries


Combining treatment stages can eliminate the need for a separate
implant-placement surgery months later.


Shorter Treatment


The implant can begin healing immediately after the tooth is
removed instead of waiting for the extraction site to heal first.


Fewer Recovery Periods


Fewer separate surgical visits can mean fewer occasions involving
anesthesia, post-operative swelling, and recovery.

ADVANCED TISSUE PRESERVATION

Preserving Bone & Gum Around a Front-Tooth Implant

In selected cases, Dr. Andrews may combine immediate implant
placement with specialized techniques intended to preserve the thin
facial bone and soft-tissue contours that help determine the final
appearance of a front tooth.

PARTIAL EXTRACTION THERAPY

Preserve Part of the Natural Root

With Partial Extraction Therapy, sometimes called the
socket-shield technique, a carefully prepared thin portion of the
natural root is intentionally retained on the facial side of the
socket.

That small root segment keeps its attachment to the surrounding
tissues and may help preserve the thin bone and gum contour that
would otherwise tend to shrink after the tooth is removed.

Goal:
Help maintain the natural ridge and gum contour around the future
implant crown.

PERIOSTEAL INHIBITION

Protect the Outside of the Facial Bone

Some post-extraction bone remodeling occurs along the outside
surface of the socket. In selected cases, Dr. Andrews may place a
thin protective barrier along the outer surface of the facial bone.

The technique is designed to reduce this external bone-remodeling
process during healing and help maintain the width and contour of
the ridge supporting the implant restoration.

Goal:
Preserve more of the existing facial ridge rather than rebuilding
it later after it has resorbed.

PRESERVE FIRST

A Different Approach to Front-Tooth Implant Treatment

The objective is to preserve as much of the patient’s existing
anatomy as possible while replacing the failing tooth. Depending on
the individual case, immediate implant placement may be combined
with Partial Extraction Therapy, periosteal inhibition, bone
grafting, or other tissue-management techniques.

By planning these steps together, treatment may require fewer
separate surgical procedures while maintaining the bone and gum
architecture needed for a natural-looking final restoration.

FRONT-TOOTH IMPLANT CONSULTATION

Find Out Which Approach Is Appropriate for Your Tooth

A clinical examination and 3D evaluation are used to determine
whether immediate implant placement or tissue-preserving techniques
are appropriate for your individual anatomy.

REAL PATIENT CASE

Upper Front-Tooth Implant Replacement

The following case demonstrates treatment of a broken upper front
tooth using immediate implant placement and coordinated management
of the surrounding bone, soft tissue, and final ceramic restoration.

MOLARS & PREMOLARS

Dental Implants for Back Teeth

Replacing a missing molar or premolar with a dental implant begins
with evaluating the tooth, surrounding bone, neighboring teeth, and
the final restoration. Whenever possible, implant treatment should be
considered before a compromised tooth is removed.

01

Plan Before Extraction

Natural tooth roots help maintain the width of the surrounding
bone. After extraction, significant bone-volume loss can occur,
particularly in the horizontal dimension.

Planning ahead may help preserve more treatment options for future
implant placement.

02

Evaluate Available Bone

Adequate bone is required to support a dental implant. When the
ridge is too narrow or deficient, bone grafting may be required
before or at the time of implant placement.

Nearby teeth and supporting tissues should also be healthy before
treatment proceeds.

03

Implant Treatment Timeline

Under favorable conditions, complete implant treatment including
the final crown may take approximately five months in the lower jaw
and six months in the upper jaw.

Treatment may take substantially longer when additional bone
reconstruction or staged procedures are necessary.

COORDINATED IMPLANT TREATMENT

Combining Procedures When Clinically Appropriate

In many implant cases, Dr. Andrews is able to coordinate tooth
extraction, bone grafting when necessary, and implant placement
during the same surgical visit. Whether this is appropriate
depends on the condition of the tooth, available bone, infection
status, anatomy, and the individual treatment plan.
