To be a viable treatment choice in the partially edentulous case, the implant-supported restoration must cosmetically equal or surpass that of conventional crown and bridge. This requires development of the edentulous ridge or potential implant restorative site to mimic that of a natural tooth. The essence in the creation of this illusion of reality is the soft tissue restorative frame.

The three-dimensional reconstruction of the implant receptor site comprises two distinct phases:

• Development of the hard tissues
• Reconstruction of the soft tissue

Orthodontic tooth movement can be synergistically combined with periodontal plastic surgical techniques, guided bone regeneration and osseous grafts to effectively establish the optimal foundation for functional and esthetic implant restorations. Vertical soft tissue and interdental papilla enhancement is frequently combined with innovative second-stage periodontal plastic surgery to create an ideal restorative frame.

This program will cover site preparation techniques for conventional dentistry as well as prior to and at the time of implant placement.

Educational Objectives:

1. Diagnosis and classification of implant recipient sites
2. Preservation techniques available at the time of extraction
3. Management of the “deficient” site through horizontal and vertical

• augmentation techniques
