Abstract
An optimal esthetic result is essential for an implant-supported restoration in the anterior zone. In the esthetic zone, providing immediate interim restorations following implant surgery has been proposed as a reliable and desirabletreatment approach. A well-contoured interim restoration following implant placement minimizes hard and soft tissue changes in the peri-implant zone. This in turn has the potential to enhance the esthetic outcome and, therefore, patient satisfaction. Multiple prosthetic and surgical aspects need to be carefully planned and executed to achieve the intended final result. This is a report describing the steps involved in recontouring the gingiva to achieve an optimal emergence profile following the immediate loading of a single implant in the esthetic zone.
