Can a dental implant br secured by the root without drilling into the jaw?

Q.

I recently had a bad fall and damaged my front teeth. One of them was removed by my dentist but he had alot of trouble doing it and he has left the root in. I now have a gap and would like it filled. Can a dental implant be secured by the remaining root instead of drilliing into the jawbone?

A.
Very unlikely

I am trying to get as much information I can about sinus correction, bone building and implant treatment. Can you advise?

Q.
I have been informed that I would need sinus correction and bone build up and the cost has been reported to me at £22,000 for implants and bridges. I have been told that drilling in the jaw is similar to the feeling of a normal filling. I am trying to get as much information as I can before anything is done. Can you advise please.,
