Esthetic dentistry and implant dentistry continue to grow in patient demand and professional popularity. More now than ever, clinicians are faced with the need to combine form with function, art with science. The considerable scientific and technical leaps that have been made in this field mean that this goal is now more achievable, and Fundamentals of Esthetic Implant Dentistry seeks to share these advances with practitioners and students alike.

With the desire for dental implant therapy ever escalating, clinicians are faced with the challenge of augmenting deficient natural physiology to provide effective sites for implantation. Implant Site Development helps the clinician decide if, when, and how to create a ridge site amenable to implantation. This practical book offers solutions to many implant site preservation scenarios, discussing different treatment options, timing, a variety of materials and techniques, and their application to the clinical practice. With a unique integrated clinical approach, Implant Site Development covers a range of site development techniques. Highly illustrated, Implant Site Development presents diagrams and clinical photographs to aid with clinical judgment and will prove useful for any dental professional involved in implant therapy, from general practitioners to prosthodontists, but especially surgeons. This literature-based, yet user-friendly, reference will be indispensable to the novice or veteran clinician.

Esthetics is the prime concern in today's dental care both for the patient and the treatment provider. Esthetic dentistry is just not limited to color matching restorations but soft tissue considerations like position of the lips, color and contour of gingiva around teeth also play a very important role in overall esthetic appearance of face. Providing an esthetic restoration in the anterior region of the mouth has been the basis of peril-implant esthetics. Period esthetics or Periodontal plastic surgeries in its broad term covers various procedures either around natural teeth or dental implant fixtures in the esthetic zone. This may range from crown lengthening procedures, coverage of denuded root surfaces, ridge augmentation, periodontal prosthetic corrections and cosmetic surgical corrections around dental implants. Prosthetics also plays an equal important role in implant esthetics. Various prosthetic parameters like 3 D implant placement, implant abutment interface, provisionalisation during interim period, choice of abutment material, digital dentistry etc. are important factors at the pinnacle of successful outcome. This book is a comprehensive overview of clinical techniques related to Periodontal esthetics and Implant Esthetics.
