Front Tooth Dental Implants: What Many Dentists DON'T Tell You

Anterior implants are not like other implants. 🦷 This case took 1.5 years, multiple surgeries, and an enormous amount of planning before we ever placed a single implant. She came to us after a failed guided bone regeneration (GBR) attempt abroad, severe bone loss from an old root canal infection, a thin gum biotype, and a high smile line. Every one of those factors alone raises the difficulty. Together? This is about as complex as anterior implant dentistry gets. Here's what went into this case before the final crown was ever seated: → Full 3D CBCT evaluation → GBR to rebuild what was lost → Additional bone grafting at the time of implant placement → Connective tissue grafting → Guided implant placement → Shade matching across 3 different substrates — implant crown, veneer, and natural tooth — side by side Anterior implants sit right in the middle of your smile. The bone has to be right. The gum has to be right. The timing has to be right. There is no shortcut. If you're missing a front tooth or have a failing one, please find someone who does this every day — not just someone who can place an implant. 🦷 Schedule your consult today: https://northtexasdentalsurgery.com/ More about All-on-4:    • The Ultimate "ALL-ON-4" VS "3-ON-6" Guide ...   📍 LOCATION: TEXAS- Mckinney, Plano, and Grapevine (Dallas-Ft.
