title: Inter-implant papilla reconstruction by means of a titanium guide.
abstract: To help reconstruct the osseous support for a missing interdental papilla between two adjacent dental implant, an inter-implant papillary template has been conceived and fabricated. This titanium housing or stent carries the bone grafting mixture to protect the process of osteogenesis during the healing period. It eliminates the need for harvesting bone from another area in the oral cavity. Because the placement of this titanium component is bone at the first stage of surgery (that is, at the implant placement stage), there is no need for another surgical invasive procedure. This article describes the shape, manipulation, and the handling of the inter-implant papillary template.
