  • Title: An interdisciplinary approach to aesthetic single implant outcomes for young patients.
    Author: Priest GF.
    Journal: Pract Proced Aesthet Dent; 2008 Apr; 20(3):167-75. PubMed ID: 18567485.
    Abstract:
    Clinicians carry a significant obligation to young patients with single missing teeth to ensure that they are prepared for a lifetime of healthy dental function and long-term aesthetic success. Adolescents and young adults in need of implant treatment embody a large and growing patient population that requires distinctly different treatment approaches than those that apply to older patient groups. The primary causes of single missing teeth in young patients are trauma and congenital absence, whereas older populations typically lose teeth due to failure of traditional dental procedures. This article provides an effective approach to meet the challenges that young patients present.
