  • Title: Treatment planning of implants in the aesthetic zone.
    Author: Jivraj S, Chee W.
    Journal: Br Dent J; 2006 Jul 22; 201(2):77-89. PubMed ID: 16865133.
    Abstract:
    Aesthetic restoration of anterior teeth with implant supported restorations is one of the most difficult procedures to execute. Bone resorption following anterior tooth extraction often compromises gingival tissue levels for the implant restoration. In the last 10 years the focus has shifted from osseointegration, to creation of an implant borne restoration which is in harmony with the surrounding hard and soft tissue. Complete reconstruction of tooth and gingival related aesthetics remains the primary objective and in some instances can be very difficult to achieve.
