Achieving a Desired Esthetic Outcome for a Single-Tooth Implant Restoration with Tissue Excess Using a Multidisciplinary Treatment Approach: A Clinical Report

Achieving ideal emergence profile and restoration contours for implant‐supported prostheses in the anterior esthetic zone is a prime requisite. In this report, the patient presented with decreased restoration space and unfavorable tissue contours for an implant restoration. Correction of space deficiency and reshaping of excess bone height and soft tissue were planned and executed carefully prior to definitive restoration of a maxillary anterior missing tooth with an implant‐retained prosthesis. Post‐treatment evaluation of the papillary levels and soft tissue profile helped in assessing maintenance of the restored emergence profile.
