Esthetic and biomechanical considerations in reconstructions using dental implants.

The single-tooth implant-supported restoration can provide an outstanding service to many patients. It requires an understanding of the biomechanical principles involved and attention to the many details involved with the diagnosis and treatment planning for these restorations. The clinician should realize that this restorative approach is contraindicated in many circumstances. As Peter K. Thomas said, "Spend more time planning than doing and doing becomes easier."

[Decision strategy in orthognathic surgery. Part 2: The esthetic choice in orthognathic surgery--practical applications].

Even if the functional factors are the most important in the decision, we have always to remember the need of our patient concerning aesthetic improvement. At this moment, the traditional approach based upon morphologic cephalometric analysis (which are frequently discordant) must be substituted by an aesthetic approach. The goal is to obtain a realistic 3D-imaging of the face as it will be after surgery. But it cannot really be achieved yet and we are obliged to work on lateral X-ray cephalograms. The most important at this stage of the decision is not to make a static aesthetic evaluation. It is on the contrary to perform a prospective simulation of the new profile line, as accurate as possible, based upon statistical correlations between soft- and hard-tissues changes. Even if there are some technical problems, even if the results are not currently good enough, the aesthetic prospective analysis allows validation or modulation of the initial functional surgical indication. We can compare for instance the aesthetic results of different amounts of displacements in bimaxillary surgery. Meanwhile, it is sure that the result depends also on the precision of the surgical procedure and on the good functional re-equilibration which is essential for the stability.
