Soft tissue management is a critical aspect of implant dentistry, impacting both the functional and esthetic outcomes. Proper soft tissue handling ensures healthy peri-implant mucosa, minimizes the risk of infection, and supports long-term implant success. Key considerations include the quality and quantity of keratinized tissue, flap design, wound closure, and soft tissue augmentation when necessary. Techniques such as connective tissue grafts, apically positioned flaps, and the use of healing abutments help achieve optimal soft tissue contours, improve emergence profiles, and enhance esthetics, especially in the anterior region.
