title: Direct composite bonding in conjunction with surgical tissue management.
abstract: This article discussed several issues associated with the intimate relationship between attachment apparatus and the restorative interface. First, it is essential that the restorative dentist have a clear understanding of crest position and its impact on the restorative outcome. Then, the restorative dentist must understand the importance of sequencing and timing when orthodontic therapy, tissue recontouring and restorative dentistry must be accomplished on the same patient.
