title: Esthetic replacement of the anterior tooth with an implant-supported restoration.
abstract: The use of implants in esthetic areas is complex because the implant must be placed in a precise location to support an esthetic restoration. This paper will focus on the treatment planning and sequencing for the restoration of single anterior teeth with implant-supported restorations. The factors necessary for a predictable esthetic outcome will be discussed.
