Dr Steven Soukoulis Implant position: Its effect on implant aesthetics and health
Goal • Implant crown should occupy same 3D space as original crown The implant position should allow this goal to be realised • Implant crown and gingival complex should replicate original architecture
FACTORS AFFECTING IMPLANT POSITION ANATOMICAL FACTORS PROSTHETIC FACTORS
Implant position • Anatomical structures; • bone, gingival tissues, lips, adjacent teeth, surgical skill/technique, implant type • Prosthetic considerations; • type of restoration (single/multiple), screw retained or cement on, posterior or anterior, crown or precision attachment
Aesthetics • Various anatomical structures can be used as reference points when trying to determine how the proposed prosthesis would satisfy the aesthetic demands of the site and patient. • This pre-surgical assessment is paramount to establishing a good position of the dental implant
Pre-Surgical Assessment SMILE LINE GINGIVAL MARGIN MIDLINE CROWN LENGTH CROWN WIDTH
Aesthetics • Maxillary incisor inclination • Evaluate the labio-lingual inclination of the maxillary anterior teeth • This can be done using: • cephalometric radiographs or • patient’s maxillary posterior occlusal plane • Generally, the labial surface of the maxillary central incisors should be perpendicular to the occlusal plane allowing maximum direct light reflection from the central incisors (Kokich et al 1997)
Aesthetics • Gingival considerations: • The ideal gingival levels are determined by establishing the correct width-to-length ratio of the maxillary anterior teeth (Sterrett et al 1999) • By determining the desired amount of gingival display • By establishing symmetry between right and left sides of the maxillary dental arch (Kokich et al1999) 80%

Aesthetic assessment • Maxillary tooth aesthetics • appraisal of the position of the maxillary central incisors relative to the upper lip • Determination of midline relationship/position

With these assessment criteria/protocols lets look at several cases to determine how to approach these to ensure a good aesthetic and peri-implant health result.
TOO DEEP TOO BUCCAL
GOOD POSITION BUT PROSTHETICS?
