Summary

This study looks at why single-tooth implants in the front upper jaw can appear to sink over time, a condition called infraposition. Researchers will follow 60 adults who already have such implants, using digital scans to measure changes and identify risk factors like age or dental traits. The goal is to better understand how common this is and how it affects appearance from both the patient's and dentist's perspective.
