Abstract :

The increased esthetic and functional demands require peri-implant soft tissue contours that are in harmony with the adjacent dentition. It is difficult, however, to maintain soft tissue quality and volume due to the multiple surgeries involved in implant placement and the physiological resorption of alveolar ridge. Oftentimes soft tissue augmentation is necessary to improve tissue contour, which can be performed in different stages through the whole implant treatment. Various surgical techniques have been described to augment the peri-implant soft tissue. In This presentation, the rationale, timing and surgical techniques of soft tissue augmentation will be discussed and demonstrated by clinical cases in order to guide clinician to achieve optimal esthetic result.
