Cambios en los tejidos blandos y duros tras la reconstrucción de la cresta ósea y tras el uso de implantes dentales con diferente geometría

The physiologic changes that occur after tooth extraction may originate alveolarridge deformities. Depending on the degree of resorption these defects may needhard tissue reconstruction procedures or the use of implants with a reduced diameteror a modified cervical design.The success of implant supported restoration and implant therapy is not basedanymore solely on the survival of the implant but also on the integration of therestoration with the surrounding tissues. In this context, peri-implant soft tissueplays a critical role in the esthetic appearance of the reconstructions. Despite of itscrucial importance the current knowledge of its clinical behavior, the impact of thesurgical approach and the mutual interplay that soft and hard tissue have is scarceare poorly understood.These limitations are mainly originated by the inherent restrictions of the avaialblemethodological techniques employed to evaluate them...
