As per your complaint it sounds that you have visited a dentist and consulted about implants. As you have mentioned that you broke your teeth , that causes traumatic bone resorption of cortical bone. In such a condition. You have to get home graft placed around your implant to avoid failure.
Next Steps
Your description suggests you have adequate bone for a good implant and bone grafting. Go ahead with it
