Well, you can but you won't get the full benefit of the implants. Furthermore, the healing caps will eventually unscrew and fall out. You could lose them and the gums will grow over the implants further necessitating another minor surgery to uncover the implants and more costs for new healing caps. It's not the way to go and your should reconsider and get your implant restored properly.

Interesting question. Unless you were chewing rock hard candies and somehow were struck so hard that you bit down hard on impact, lodging part of the candy into the gum, it's unlikely this is from an accident. Although anything is possible as I have come to learn over 20 years of experience...
Yes you need a gum draft over that implant. See a periodontist to assess the gums and bone levels around the implants to understand better why you are getting so much recession on these implants. Not a good sign. I'm not a fan of all on 4/5/6 because it's a short cut treatment or UNDER ...
