Abstract

The aesthetic issue is a significant concern in dentistry, as achieving aesthetics in implant-prosthetic therapy is significantly more difficult than with dental-based restorations. Restoration supported on implants should be harmonized with the individual’s smile and face. For every patient without dental implant candidates, the objectives of the dentist should be multiple. For every patient without teeth, a dental implant candidate, the objectives of the dentist should be multiple. Creating the ideal aesthetic outcome is one of the most important objectives of implant-prosthetic treatment, but also improving oral health and establishing proper occlusal function are other goals required for a successful treatment. Patient management should integrate knowledge of many areas of dentistry into a comprehensive treatment plan. One of the most important skills that dentists should have is to understand the reactions of soft and hard peri-implant tissues and to understand how aesthetic criteria are affected by them.
