providing an esthetic restoration in the anterior region of the mouth has been the basis of peri-implant esthetics. to achieve optimal esthetics, in implant supported restorations, various patient and tooth related factors have to be taken into consideration. peri-implant plastic surgery has been adopted to improve the soft tissue and hard tissue profi les, during and after implant placement. t...

Background and objective:Many biochemical features of sulfur mustard (SM) intoxication remained unknown. So far, the direct association between biochemical parameter changes and ocular problems in patients exposed to SM is not evaluated.The current study aimed at evaluating the associations between the ocular findings in patients with SM intoxication and the changes of...

Soft tissue-implant interface is an important anatomical feature contributing to the long-term success of dental implants. Based on the available evidence, different factors may influence biological width around implants including the surgical technique, implant loading, implant surface properties, abutment materials, implant position, and width of the peri-implant mucosa. The purpose of the pr...
