Abstract
Dental implants are now considered as a predictable treatment modality for the oral rehabilitation of partially or fully edentulous patients. Recently emphasis has changed towards achieving a predictable esthetic success. Creating aesthetically successful implant-supported restoration in the anterior region of oral cavity depends on the presence of interimplant papilla when multiple implants are used. The present paper reports a case of interimplant papilla reconstruction in esthetic zone of maxilla during one stage early loading multiple implant procedure using demineralized freeze dried bone allograft block fixed by titanium screw.
Highlights
Dental implants are considered as a predictable treatment modality for the oral rehabilitation of partially or fully edentulous patients
The factors considered while evaluating success included direct contact between alveolarsupporting bone and dental implants, together with a lack of clinical and radiographic signs of inflammation but, with the growing use of implant-supported oral rehabilitation in the partially edentulous patient and single tooth restoration, emphasis has changed towards achieving predictable esthetic success in anterior region of oral cavity

Summary
Dental implants are considered as a predictable treatment modality for the oral rehabilitation of partially or fully edentulous patients. The factors considered while evaluating success included direct contact between alveolarsupporting bone and dental implants, together with a lack of clinical and radiographic signs of inflammation but, with the growing use of implant-supported oral rehabilitation in the partially edentulous patient and single tooth restoration, emphasis has changed towards achieving predictable esthetic success in anterior region of oral cavity. Deficiency of soft tissue between implantsupported restorations often affects the final aesthetic result. This is important in those patients who may show peri-implant soft tissue when smiling or speaking [1]. Creating aesthetically successful implant-supported restoration in the anterior region of oral cavity depends on the presence of interimplant papilla when multiple implants are used. Given the fact that osseous support is crucial for the soft tissue profile between the implants, the present paper reports a case of interimplant papilla in esthetic zone of maxilla during one stage early loading multiple implant procedure
