Abstract:
Implant treatment in the esthetic area requires stable osseointegration and successful esthetic outcomes. Achieving this goal requires careful consideration of accurate implant axis and ideal three-dimensional position. Owing to the high esthetics and the special anatomical structure of the maxillary, a successful implant means a synthesized deli-beration of the residual bone dimensions, soft-tissue thickness, and the relationship of the residual alveolar ridge with the planned restoration. This article offers an in-depth analysis of the clinical decisions and key factors affecting the implant direction in the esthetic area.
