Implant Emergence Profile Demystified

Is the implant emergence profile important for success of treatment? A wide mucosal emergence angle of the implant prosthesis can increase by as much as 30 times the risk for inflammation of the peri-implant tissue, as shown by a recent clinical study. It becomes therefore apparent that the prosthetic design of the implant supracrestal complex is critical for the long-term health of peri-implant tissue.
