Rehabilitation of Partially Edentulous Esthetic Zone with Custom-made Abutment in Young Patient

Abstract

Abstract Implant positioning plays an important role in giving esthetics as well as in proper functioning of prosthesis. To achieve the best results, extensive evaluation and treatment planning are necessary for placing dental implants in an esthetically pleasing area. Important factors include the soft-tissue architecture, bone quantity and quality in both the horizontal and vertical planes. Thin labial cortical plate and gingival tissue in the upper anterior region are issues for esthetic outcomes. The use of high-performance ceramic material, the ability to customize the position, the angulation, the emergence profile, and the future position of the crown margin of the final restoration are all advantages of the custom abutment. Many cases of correcting the divergence between implants in total rehabilitation of the maxilla or mandible or in screw-retained single crowns are mentioned in the literature. This case report describes prosthetic rehabilitation of missing lateral teeth with customized abutments in young patients.
