Peri-implant plastic surgery techniques to hard and soft tissue augmentation in implant rehabilitation

Abstract

This report presents the clinical results of peri-implant plastic surgical approaches for hard and soft tissues before and during the implant placement in a patient with vertical ridge deformation and a shallow vestibule sulcus, and the subsequently performed prosthetic rehabilitation. The surgical approaches used in this case reduced the crown-height space and crown-to-implant ratio and ensured that the implants were placed in their ideal positions, and peri-implant tissue health was maintained. In conclusion, developments in the peri-implant plastic surgery enable the successful augmentation of hard and soft tissue defects and provide the implant-supported fixed prosthetic rehabilitation.

“…An array of procedures and material have been employed for peri‐implant mucosal augmentation 8,9,21–26 . These procedures have aimed to increase the width of keratinized mucosa, increase mucosal thickness and extending the vestibule.…”

“…20 An array of procedures and material have been employed for peri-implant mucosal augmentation. 8,9,[21][22][23][24][25][26] These procedures have aimed to increase the width of keratinized mucosa, increase mucosal In a study to investigate the kinetics of changes in keratinized mucosal following FGGs or native xenogenic collagen matrix, approximately 13 mm of both grafts were placed. 12 After 6 months, the width of keratinized mucosa had decreased to 67% and 59% in the FGG and n-XCM groups, respectively.…”
