| Abstract | |
The replacement of teeth in the anterior region of maxilla is most critical because esthetics, phonetics, function, occlusal pattern, and patient awareness blend to provide a very specific incisal edge and contour position. Various treatment options are available for the restoration of a single, maxillary anterior missing tooth. When possible, the independent implant and crown is the treatment of choice. The single tooth implant is indicated to improve the daily hygiene and decrease caries and endodontic risks to the adjacent teeth. FRIALIT-2 dental implant system with the internal hex design provides excellent stability for single tooth restorations. This case report describes the management of an anterior missing tooth using FRIALIT-2 implant. |
