Abstract
Successful prosthodontic treatment begins with an accurate diagnosis and thorough and comprehensive treatment planning. Osseointegrations is an integral part of prosthodontic treatment planning. When use of the single tooth implant is anticipated, there are several procedure objetives that should be considered: elimination of pathosis, attainment of ideal fixture alignment and stability, protection of the adjacent teeth, preservation or augmentation of the alveolar ridge, attainment of primary closure and avoidance of mucosal pressure. In this article, esthetic, biological and biomechanical considerations are discussed for the reposition of a single tooth by a single implant.
