Role of Gingival Biotype on Implant Esthetics -An Observational Study

Abstract

Implant dentistry has seen enormous innovations made to achieve primary implant stability and improve bone-to-implant contact. The focus has now shifted towards creating an esthetic restoration that is indistinguishable from natural teeth and is stable over time. The current progress of dental treatment in implant and perioplastic surgery has led to further expectations among patients to the better esthetics results. Predictability of post-operative success is a major consideration in treatment planning both for periodontal and implants treatment. Therefore, a careful understanding and analysis of the surrounding tissues is necessary. In the long run, the success of esthetic restorations depends on various factors like gingival phenotype, gingival tissue architecture and shape of the anterior teeth. Hence, an accurate diagnosis of gingival tissue biotype is of prime importance in devising an appropriate treatment plan and achieving a predictable esthetic outcome. Hence, this study reveals the role of gingival biotype for the success of implants.
