Tooth replacement in the esthetic zone is among the most challenging tasks for clinicians. The prerequisites of achieving a successful esthetic outcome in this region include: 1) knowledge of the biology of the implant-prosthesis-tissue interface and their post-treatment alterations; 2) careful pre-operative treatment planning; 3) site development and augmentation of hard and soft tissues to correct deficiencies and 4) attention to details in execution of surgical and prosthetic techniques. Accomplishing successful outcomes in the esthetic zone, often involves interdisciplinary collaboration among various disciplines. Though each member of the treatment team may fulfill a narrow function, it is important for each clinician to have a thorough and comprehensive understanding of all phases of care. This course will review the diagnostic, surgical and restorative techniques involved in treatment of patients requiring tooth replacement in the esthetic zone.
