Abstract

Gingival discrepancies are reported to be the most common complications surrounding implant replacements of single teeth. Recently, preservation of soft tissue and gingival aesthetics has been gaining immense importance due to the high aesthetic expectations of the patient. Maintenance of interproximal soft tissue and the need for aesthetics are being increasingly recognized as important criteria for the success of implants. Optimum aesthetics is achieved by the creation of a suitable gingival architecture using customized healing abutments. In addition, a customized impression post should be made for the accurate transfer of gingival cuff morphology to the cast. This case report explains a systematic approach in achieving optimum aesthetics in implant restorations.
