Abstract:
How to achieve the esthetic results with the restoration in anterior teeth is key aims which both of dentists and patients concern about now. Previously, the shape, color and texture of the teeth, i.e. "white esthetics" , were main objectives that prosthodontists want to achieve. The development of dental materials has played a key role in this field. More and more, the prosthodontist has realized that the healthy soft tissue is also very important for the final esthetic results. The healthy periodontal tissue is not only the basis for the longevity of restoration, but also the basis of esthetic results. The shape, color and texture of soft tissue, the mesial and distal gingival papilla, the margin and symmetry of the gingival, i.e. "pink esthetics" , have ultimate relationship with final esthetic results. The objective of the article is to introduce the common pink esthetic defects for the restorations in anterior teeth, the treatment protocol and methods to improve pink esthetic results.
