Implant success depends on more than osseointegration. In the Annual Implant Issue of Compendium of Continuing Education in Dentistry, Dr. Yoon Jeong Kim and colleagues detail the role of keratinized mucosa width and mucosal thickness in achieving esthetic, hygienic, and long-lasting results.
Their clinical review offers diagnostic guidance, timing strategies, and comparative grafting techniques, including connective tissue grafts and collagen matrices, all designed to optimize peri-implant tissue.
Also in the July/August issue:
▪️ Managing retrograde peri-implantitis using guided bone regeneration
▪️ Patient behavior and its influence on implant outcomes
▪️ Assessing sinus augmentation using digital implant planning
▪️ A new biomaterial tackling combined regenerative indications
