Trauma, periodontitis as well as iatrogenic dentistry result in a ridge defect that precludes straightforward implant therapy. Esthetic challenges can be even more relevant when tissue reconstruction needs to be performed in areas adjacent to teeth with a reduced periodontium since the impaired blood flow due to the disease can reduce the biological potential for Guided Bone Regeneration. The key to successful implant dentistry even in challenging clinical cases is the clinician's ability to provide adequate volume and quality of bone and mucosa to the recipient site. This requires a precise diagnostic evaluation based on knowledge, CBCT 3D reconstruction and surgical skills.
