A multidisciplinary approach for implant placement in the aesthetic zone: A case report and literature review

Achieving an optimal aesthetic outcome with implant-supported crowns in the aesthetic zone remains one of the biggest challenges in implant dentistry. A 34-year-old female patient, with no significant systemic pathology, came to the dental office to receive treatment for an anterior open bite and gingival recession in tooth UL1. This case report demonstrates how a multidisciplinary approach, which includes orthodontic treatment, periodontal plastic surgery, guided bone regeneration, and an implant-supported crown, can effectively restore both function and aesthetics for the patient. Additionally, a narrative review of the literature is presented alongside the case presentation. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This case report illustrates a multidisciplinary approach that effectively addresses complex cases in aesthetic dentistry.

Abstract

Achieving an optimal aesthetic outcome with implant-supported crowns in the aesthetic zone remains one of the biggest challenges in implant dentistry. A 34-year-old female patient, with no significant systemic pathology, came to the dental office to receive treatment for an anterior open bite and gingival recession in tooth UL1. This case report demonstrates how a multidisciplinary approach, which includes orthodontic treatment, periodontal plastic surgery, guided bone regeneration, and an implant-supported crown, can effectively restore both function and aesthetics for the patient. Additionally, a narrative review of the literature is presented alongside the case presentation. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This case report illustrates a multidisciplinary approach that effectively addresses complex cases in aesthetic dentistry.
