Teeth versus implants: mucogingival considerations and management of soft tissue complications.

Soft tissue complications around dental implants occur with an incidence between 1 and 7 percent, and the treatments for these have not been as well studied, understood or as predictable as with similar complications associated with teeth. These complications include recession, fenestration/dehiscence defects, gingival inflammation/proliferation and fistulas. This paper compares and contrasts important mucogingival considerations between teeth and implants. Diagnosis, treatment and prevention of some of the more common soft tissue complications are presented.
