Abstract :With the advancement of technology and prosthetic materials, treating one or more missing teeth with implant-supported crowns and fixed partial dentures has become preferable. This choice is driven by factors such as the preservation of neighboring teeth, which do not require preparation, and the ease of maintaining gingival health. Success in treating single missing teeth in the anterior region must consider esthetics and function. Thus, all details should be carefully considered for ideal treatment from the surgical process of implant placement to the prosthetic process, including the material selection and the type of retention for the prosthesis on the implant. This review discusses implant planning based on the clinical and radiologic evaluation of tooth loss in the maxillary anterior region, emphasizing its impact on the prosthesis. It also covers factors to consider implant prosthetic options, such as the osseointegration of the implant.
