Abstract:
Implant failures are extremely difficult to correct. They usually result from the loss of bone and soft tissue volume. It's really an equal balance of bone and soft tissue that must be present for ideal long-term success. Keratinized gingiva is beneficial around implants but not essential for health; however with increased soft tissue volumes we do see fewer complications. When preventing esthetic soft tissue failures we must augment any deficiencies with implant placement. Esthetic complications fit into two areas; failures with missing papillary volume and deficient facial gingiva /bone. This lecture will focus on how to prevent and treat these complications. Proper planning and sequencing with connective tissue grafts/immediate or delayed placement will all be discussed.
