Loose FPD

A 29-year-old woman has multiple restoration (Fig.1).  Recently the upper anterior bridge is loose.  It appears that there is breakage between #9 and 10 and that the tooth #9 is non-salvageable (Fig.2).  The FPD will be sectioned between #8 and 9.  It is possible that the tooth #8 is non-salvageable.  Since the bone height is not ample, an implant system with high stability will be chosen for this case.  Osteotomy will be established slightly distal to avoid the Incisive Canal.  Photos will be taken preop.  Do not forget the Planning Kit; angled abutment may be used.
