Objective: This pilot, prospective interventional study aimed to analyze the influence of supracrestal tissue height when using the one abutment-one time concept at the time of implant placement, on peri-implant hard and soft tissue remodeling in esthetic areas. The definitive crown was placed 7 days later.

Method And Materials: Facial mucosal margin position, mesial and distal papilla levels, and mesial and distal marginal bone loss were assessed after 7 days (placement of the definitive crown), and 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 months after implant placement.

This prospective longitudinal study evaluated the peri-implant soft tissue remodeling, marginal bone levels, and implant success rate of immediately placed single implants-which received a definitive zirconia abutment and provisional restoration at implant placement-in the maxillary esthetic zone. The final crown was delivered 7 days later. Patients (n = 26) presenting a single extraction-indicated lateral or central incisor with adequate bone volume were eligible for this study.

Objective: This research aimed to longitudinally evaluate the optical density of peri-implant alveolar bone. The data acquired from study participants previously treated with 37 osseointegrated implants were analyzed utilizing the radiographic subtraction technique.

Methods And Materials: The radiographic follow-ups were performed five times: at the implantation of the prostheses and after 15, 90, 180 and 360 days.
