Vertical ridge augmentation in the esthetic zone
Abstract
The reconstruction of deficient alveolar ridges using vertical and/or horizontal guided bone regeneration techniques allows for ideal implant placement, which is crucial for function and also for esthetically successful outcomes. Unlike in the past, when meeting a patient's functional demands was sufficient, many patients now have greater expectations from their implant restoration. Hence, it is no longer enough simply to restore the edentulous space with a functioning tooth or teeth. It has been suggested that patients now measure their final restoration using the contralateral natural tooth as the gold standard....

Horizontal bone ‐augmentation procedures in implant dentistry: prosthetically guided regeneration
This article presents an evidence‐based, prosthetically driven approach for the treatment of edentulous ridges with horizontal defects. The classification of bony defects, the main augmentation techniques, the selection criteria among different surgical procedures for different types of bony defects, and the advantages, disadvantages and limitations of each technique, are described in detail.

Esthetics in periodontics and implantology
Abstract
Periodontal plastic surgery comprises an increasing part of clinical periodontology. Clinical trials have traditionally used professionals to judge esthetic outcome, and few studies have addressed patient needs and requests (true end points). Development of universally accepted and validated methods for professional esthetic assessment, together with standardized questionnaires for patient‐perceived outcome, may help to provide better insights into the true needs and benefits of periodontal and implant‐associated plastic surgery. In this volume of Periodontology 2000, experienced researchers and clinicians fro...

Esthetic evaluation and patient ‐centered outcomes in root‐coverage procedures
Abstract
Treatment of buccal gingival recession is performed for esthetic concerns, root sensitivity, root caries and cervical abrasion resulting from incorrect toothbrushing. Over the years, clinicians and researchers have improved surgical techniques to achieve surrogate end points, such as complete root coverage, gingival recession reduction or keratinized tissue increase, ignoring the input from the patient regarding the true indications for treatment. In the past few years there has been an emphasis to include patient‐centered outcomes in the evaluation of root‐coverage procedures. The aim of this narrative review...

Crown lengthening and restorative procedures in the esthetic zone
Abstract
Crown lengthening is one of the most common surgical procedures in periodontal practice. Its indications include subgingival caries, crown or root fractures, altered passive eruption, cervical root resorption and short clinical abutment, and its aim is to re‐establish the biologic width in a more apical position. While the procedure in posterior areas of the dentition has been thoroughly investigated, crown lengthening performed for esthetic reasons in the anterior areas is still a matter of debate and an evidence‐based technique is not available. This paper provides accurate descriptions of the surgical and r...

Simplified procedures to treat periodontal intraosseous defects in esthetic areas
Abstract
Successful treatment of deep intraosseous defects in esthetic areas implies clinical improvement of the lesion consistent with long‐term tooth survival as well as the preservation (or improvement) of esthetics. It is hoped that such treatment end points may be reached through procedures (which we have termed as ‘simplified’) that, on the one hand can be easily and successfully applied by the majority of clinicians, and, on the other hand, are well tolerated by patients in terms of postsurgical pain and discomfort, adverse events and cost. In this review, we describe the technical aspects of the simplified pr...
