Soft Tissue Stabilization Using Zirconia Abutment Post Guided Bone Regeneration: A Case Report

Ensuring a restoration is stable over time and blends in seamlessly with neighbouring natural teeth is one of the most difficult challenges in meeting the patient's aesthetic expectations.1In the anterior maxilla, the prosthetic perfection is often challenging as ideal overall esthetic outcomes of pink and white must be achieved to get optimal esthetics. All-ceramic restorations showed a significantly better colour match to unrestored neighbouring teeth than porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations on titanium or gold abutments. Notable clinical differences were observed in comparison with the contralateral tooth in a recent study using titanium or gold abutment with PFM Crown or aluminium oxide abutment with all-ceramic crown. This case report shows a case with good esthetic results with the use of zirconia abutment in anterior esthetic zone..
