Abstract


Background:  It is vital to preserve and maintain the edentulous ridge and normal gingival architecture, which often collapses after tooth extraction. Interproximal tissue contour preservation and the prevention of alveolar bone collapse have never been as desirable as they are in today’s esthetic dentistry.   Whether it is implant or Fixed partial denture, soft and hard tissue recession after the removal of an anterior tooth is one of the most challenging issues in a patient’s treatment plan.

Keywords: Owate, Pontic, Aesthetic Dentistry.
