An increasing number of dental practitioners are considering dental implants in the treatment of their patients. The range of applications, protocol variations, the complexity of implant systems and related management have all increased dramatically over the last decade, and this may be bewildering to the newcomer to implant dentistry. This pioneering text from a team at the Guy's, King's and St Thomas' Hospital dental schools considers the main implant systems for various clinical indications in an unbiased fashion, indicating their potential advantages and disadvantages.

3 Single tooth planning in the anterior region (p. 35-36)Introduction
Single tooth restorations are often thought to be the most demanding implant restorations, particularly from the aesthetic viewpoint. Achievement of an ideal result is dependent upon:
1. the status of the adjacent teeth 2. the ridge and soft-tissue profile
3. planning and precise implant placement
4. sympathetic surgical handling of the soft tissue
5. a high standard of prosthetics
The assessment and planning is dealt with in this chapter and surgical and prosthodontic factors in subsequent chapters.
Clinical examination
Examination should start with an extraoral assessment of the lips and the amount of tooth or gingiva that is exposed when the patient smiles (Figure 3.1A). A high smile line exposing a lot of gingiva is the most demanding aesthetically with both conventional and implant prosthodontics. The appearance of the soft tissue and particularly the height and quality of the gingival papillae on the proximal surfaces of the teeth adjacent to the missing tooth are particularly important in these cases (Figure 3.1B). If there has been gingival recession this should be noted. Exposure of root surface on the adjacent teeth labial surfaces may be correctable with periodontal mucogingival plastic surgery procedures, but recession on proximal surfaces is not usually correctable.
The patient needs to be made aware of the limitations (which are the same as those that apply to tooth-supported fixed bridgework). It is always easier to judge the aesthetic problems if the patient has an existing replacement, preferably one without prosthetic replacement of soft tissue. A simple gum-fitted removable partial denture that has a satisfactory appearance is very helpful (Figure 3.1C). The height of the edentulous ridge and its width and profile should be assessed by careful palpation. Large ridge concavities are usually readily

detected. Ridge mapping is advocated by some clinicians. In this technique the area under investigation is given local anaesthesia and the thickness of the soft tissue is measured by puncturing it to the bone, using either a graduated periodontal probe or specially designed callipers.
The information is transferred to a cast of the jaw that is sectioned through the ridge. This method gives a better indication of bone profile than simple palpation but is still prone to error. Whenever the clinician is in doubt about the bone width and contour, it is advisable to request a radiographic examination to achieve this (see section on sectional tomography). One of the most important assessments is measurement of the tooth space at the level of the crown, at the soft-tissue margin and between the roots. The first is important for the aesthetics and is best judged by measuring the width of the crown in comparison to the contralateral natural tooth, if present. The available width at the root level determines whether an implant and abutment can be accommodated without compromising the adjacent tooth roots and soft tissue.
A commonly quoted minimal dimension is 6 mm, both in the mesiodistal and buccolingual plane. This allows for an average implant of 4 mm in diameter to have a margin of 1 mm of bone surrounding it. The mesiodistal dimension is commonly compromised in the maxillary lateral incisor region and the lower incisor region, where the natural teeth are small (Figures 3.2 and 3.3). In the case of young patients with developmentally missing maxillary incisors, it is advisable to liaise with the treating orthodontists to agree space requirements and to check that adequate space has been achieved before removal of the orthodontic appliance. The adjacent root alignment can sometimes be palpated but usually requires verification radiographically.
Spaces that are 5 mm wide mesiodistally may be amenable to treatment with a narrow-diameter implant/abutment (e.g. 3.3 mm rather than 4 mm in diameter) provided that the forces it is subjected to are not too high. For example, utilization of narrow implants would be contraindicated in a patient with a parafunctional activity such as bruxism. On the other hand, patients with a spaced dentition have excess mesiodistal space. Provided that the ridge has an adequate buccolingual width, the clinician could plan to place a wider diameter implant that more closely matches the root of the tooth that is being replaced (Figures 3.4 and 3.5). The selection of the most appropriate implant diameter has a great bearing on the aesthetics and surgery. This is dealt with in more detail in the surgical section (Chapter 9), which also compares some of the implant systems available.
