Reaching an optimal esthetic result in implant therapy is a challenging and large-scale procedure. One of the most important aspects is the predictability of our results. The different disciplines of dentistry which are involved (oral surgery, periodontal surgery, prosthodontics) should not be discussed separately. The only way to achieve a satisfactory result is to take into consideration all possible aspects during every step of the treatment (treatment planning, surgery, prosthodontics).
Different treatment modalities and aspects for single tooth replacement and partially edentulous cases will be discussed.
