Abstract

The anterior smile zone presents unique challenges in restorative dentistry, where esthetic outcomes are critical for patient satisfaction. Despite the advancements in dental implant technology, several myths persist regarding the predictability of achieving esthetic excellence in this region. This article aims to debunk these misconceptions, highlighting the realities of soft tissue management, bone volume considerations, and the integration of advanced materials and techniques. By emphasizing customized approach according to patient biology and anatomy, the use of provisional restorations, and ongoing patient assessment, we demonstrate that predictable and aesthetically pleasing results can be achieved with dental implants.
