About

The objective of the study was to assess the aesthetic outcome of different abutments materials and shapes on dental implants .

A set of parameters, including assessments of the mucosa and periodontal tissue , soft tissue , radiographic evaluations and clinical photographs, was used to obtain a measure of the aesthetic of implant-prosthesis rehabilitations.
