Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Orthodontic management of uneven gingival margins in patients with healthy or reduced periodontium to improve smile aesthetics

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Uneven gingival margins may cause visible asymmetries during smiling and may reflect alterations in the tooth shape and morphology, particularly in cases requiring restorative procedures. Despite being perceived as a minor health condition, presence of uneven gingival margins usually impacts the smile aesthetics and could affect the individual'

Methods for 3D evaluation and quantification of gingival recessions and gingival margin changes: Advancements from conventional techniques

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract In an era of increasing life expectancy and growing patient demands towards lifelong natural tooth retention, accurate assessment of gingival recessions is crucial for diagnosing periodontal diseases, planning preventive or restorative interventions, and evaluating their outcomes.

Cone-Beam Computed Tomography as a Diagnostic Method for Determination of Gingival Thickness and Distance between Gingival Margin and Bone Crest

The Scientific World Journal, 2015
The objective of the present study was to assess cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) as a diagnostic method for determination of gingival thickness (GT) and distance between gingival margin and vestibular (GMBC-V) and interproximal bone crests (GMBC-I).

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Investigation of active matrix- metaloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) as a reference parameter for path control in antimicrobial photothermal therapy (aPTT) using a split-mouth design

Heliyon, 2019
Objectives: This retrospective data-collection study aims to explain how the active matrix-metalloproteinase-8-titer (aMMP-titer) influences the immune response of the subject. This is done through monotherapy scaling and root planing (SRP) which is then

Three‐dimensional digital quantitative analysis of periodontal and peri‐implant phenotype—A narrative review

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract 3D digital evaluation of the periodontal and peri‐implant tissue, including CBCT, intraoral scanning, optical surface scanning, and ultrasonography, is being used in the clinical arena with increasing frequency. Thus, to validate the utilization of 3D digital analysis for this purpose, a critical evaluation of the reliability of digital ...

Soft‐Tissue Augmentation During Implant Placement in the Aesthetic Zone: Clinical, Radiographic, Histological and Patient‐Reported Outcomes From a Randomised Controlled Trial Using Connective Tissue Graft and a Volume‐Stable Collagen Matrix

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, Volume 53, Issue 10, Page 1585-1595, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the clinical, radiographic, histological and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) of soft‐tissue augmentation (STA) during implant placement in the aesthetic zone using a connective tissue graft (CTG) or a volume‐stable collagen matrix (VCMX). Materials and Methods In this three‐arm randomised controlled trial, 25 patients
