If you have lost a single tooth, the resulting gap can be closed using an implant with an abutment. No healthy neighboring tooth is required for this process nor does it need to be prepared as a supporting post. An implant is often the more esthetic solution compared to a conventional restoration. In addition, modern ceramic materials allow a perfect reproduction of natural teeth.
