ISSUES REGARDING IMPLANT-PROSTHETIC RESTORATIONS IN THE FRONTAL AREA
Abstract
Implantology aims at the lasting restoration of masticatory function and also of aesthetics, phonetics and patient comfort. But, at the same time, among the purposes of treatment with dental implants is the stabilization of the peri-implant bone, whose resorption is thus stopped at the time of implant insertion, as well as the peri-implant soft tissues, which are supported by the peri-implant bone and after their collapse, in the event of bone atrophy, it appears an unsightly appearance of the teeth and the contour of the gingival mucosa.
