The Critical “Pink” Interface In Esthetic Dentistry… A Cross-Interdisciplinary Management of the Alternatives… Limitations…Solutions…
This program is a perspective into how multidisciplinary “interface planning” has become an integral part of clinical esthetic dentistry, particularly implant , and why in 2012 has become essential to combine not only “white” tooth esthetics but also “pink” gingival aspects.
Today, understanding the prosthetic, surgical and biological limitations, is part of new treatment planning therapeutic protocols in an approach to simplify, and provide predictable minimally invasive esthetic outcomes.
This program will address:
• The 4 Key Aspects to Gingival Harmony, color, “Artificial gingivae”, hybrid innovations of ceramic and composite.
• The critical abutment / implant interface in esthetic restorations.
• Solving the adjacent implant dilemma
