Meet us on November 22, 2024 in Timişoara for the 15th edition of the ICTN (Implants Connected To Nature) Congress. Our ambassador, Dr. Simone Marconcini, will address the topic of How to recover naturally sealed tissues in implantology.

Implant dentistry has evolved considerably over the last 50 years. Today, it is well known that, to guarantee the short- and long-term success of an implant-supported prosthetic rehabilitation, mucointegration (integration of the cervical part of the implant within the soft tissue) is as important as osseointegration (direct contact between the implant and the surrounding bone).

Soft tissue is crucial from the outset of the first surgical procedure, since it represents an indispensable barrier to protect the underlying bone and, at the same time, recreate a natural appearance. Thanks to past research and recent publications, clinicians and scientists have gained a better understanding of the role and importance of biological width.

Sealed tissue recovery is fundamental to prevent peri-implantitis, to decrease chronic inflammation and to reduce bacterial infiltration.
In this context, the possibility of using materials capable of recreating a more natural, high-performance seal around the implant prosthetic rehabilitation is increasingly a key issue.

Titanium is still the material most clinicians are familiar with, but zirconia has gained in popularity over the past few years. This lecture will demonstrate that it is possible to combine the advantages of both biomaterials within an innovative and clinical evidence-based tissue level implant.
