[|Human|] My incisor has been missing for more than 40 years. The gum bone is too thin ,less than  2CM. Q. Under these conditions, can I have my teeth implanted? The periphery of the missing tooth is also displaced. Is it necessary to first fix the tooth displaced in the periphery before implanting the tooth?best regardsPaul
[|AI|]  Hi.  There is a lesser chance of placing implants efficiently if the bone is thin, but with the latest Implant types and techniques small sized implants can be placed. Also, if bone is thin, then many a times bone grafts can be placed for improving bone thickness and ease in Implant placement. If the adjacent teeth are displaced then yes, they need to be realigned. So first please send an X-ray of your teeth where implant needs to be placed so that I can guide you more precisely. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
