The Gold Standard for single tooth replacement?

Accreditation Case Type 3 Tooth replacement David Bloom BDS Introduction and chief complaint
This new patient attended complaining of a missing front tooth and an acrylic ‘flipper’ partial denture replacing it. She wanted a more permanent fixed replacement for this tooth. The debilitating effects of missing a front tooth can be seen in the preoperative full face picture (Figure 1). Whilst historically either a removable option or bridgework would have been the only treatment options, with the advent of dental implants we now have what could be considered the gold standard for replacing a single missing tooth.
