Summary

The aim of this study is to review the long-term soft tissue stability and the long-term esthetic results of single crowns supported by tissue level implants placed in non-augmented healed sites.

The hypothesis of the present study is that tissue level implants can achieve ideal esthetic outcomes in non-augmented healed sites.

Conditions

  • Poor Aesthetics of Existing Restoration

Interventions

PROCEDURE

single crowns supported by implants

The implant placement procedures were planned based on clinical and radiographic evaluation. During the surgeries, the mid-crestal incision and intra-crevicular incision were made following local articaine infiltration anesthesia. No releasing incisions were made. After full-thickness flaps were elevated labially and lingually to expose the alveolar ridge, the implants were placed according to the standard surgical procedures defined by the manufacturer. After a healing time of 10-16 weeks, implant-level impressions were taken. The porcelain (Ivoclar-Vivadent AG, Schaan, Lichtenstein) fused to noble metal crowns were fabricated. Abutment screws were torqued to 15 Ncm. Crowns were cemented with HY-bond Glassionomer Cement
