      Preface

      The field of implant dentistry has developed significantly in recent years. As a result, practitioners are faced with higher demand as well as expectations from their patients, not only in terms of successful implant treatment but also the long-term esthetics of the final result. At the same time, the growing number of patients with soft-tissue-related problems is an undeniable reality.

      This volume therefore provides readers with guidance and reference material for the treatment of patients with mucogingival deformities. Its aim is to reduce the risk of biological and esthetic complications around dental implants, and to ensure predictable and stable long-term treatment outcomes.

      As with every ITI Treatment Guide, this volume illustrates clinical approaches to peri-implant soft-tissue integration and management, step by step, in a variety of clinical situations.

      We hope this volume provides clinicians support and orientation towards optimal long-term maintenance of peri-implant soft-tissue health and esthetics.
