Want to implant
I want to implant teeth but my old tooth roots are still inside. Is it possible to implant new tooth on it? Or have to remove it first.

The roots stumps have to be removed before we plan a replacement of any sort. Unless there is gross infection around the root pieces, implants can be placed immediately in the same appointment after extraction
