Implant placed by GP 6 months ago, #14 is integrated yet has bone defect. What is best suggestion to move forward?

I would consider taking it out; angulation looks off, soft tissue looks extremely thin which will cause issues with the implant in the long run anyways. Explant, graft and do a sinus lift (vertical approach or lateral depending on bone at time of placement) and make sure you have 3 mm of vertical soft tissue height above the implant platform.

treatment planning #19 with surgical guide
I’m just starting out with my implant journey as well, but I thought it was minimum 8mm of space from implant to opposing tooth when its 1 single unit implant crown. I’m just asking to learn; there is much vertical bone, would it be ok to place a longer implant there and submerge the implant to get minimum 8mm of occlusal space? Thanks in advance.
