Through progress in science and technology, implants have gradually become more popular. This gives patients another treatment choice. There are increasing numbers of reports on implants in recent years. High success rates exceeding 90% were reported in almost all of these documents. Even so, implant failure still occurs. In order to pursue improvements in medical quality, dentists must understand all factors which can cause implant failure and assess them carefully before implantation. This report investigates the reasons for failure in this case and discusses the subsequent management. After our evaluation, the major reason for the implant failure may be due to the apical lesion of the central incisor close to the implant. We cannot augment the ridge as we expected because of the thin gingival biotype of the patient. Therefore, in order to achieve the esthetic result, we chose non-resorbable hydroxyapatite to augment the ridge. As for the prosthetic part, we restored the edentulous ridge by cantilever bridge, the result turned out to be acceptable.
