Esthetic re-creation of soft tissue architecture in replacing missing maxillary anterior teeth.
Replacing missing maxillary anterior teeth while providing an adequate esthetic can present a considerable challenge. A substantial effort is directed toward achieving a better tooth-to-soft tissue relationship, regardless of whether the restorative modalities are implants, naturally supported fixed bridges, or removable partial dentures. The interdental papilla is critical to the esthetically pleasant architecture and contributes to successful harmonious restoration, especially in patients with a high smile. There are several techniques for restoring the indental papilla. The best result comes from careful planning and good communication with the patient.
