Soft Tissue Around Dental Implants

Soft tissue plays a critical role in the long-term success of dental implants. In this expert discussion, implantologist and researcher Prof. Piero Papi explains why modern implant dentistry must go beyond bone and focus on peri-implant soft tissue management.

Learn the three key soft tissue components that influence implant stability and health, including keratinized mucosa width, soft tissue thickness, and transmucosal height. The conversation also explores when clinicians should perform soft tissue augmentation, how different surgical approaches can improve outcomes, and how soft tissue substitutes such as mucoderm® can support predictable and stable results.

This session combines clinical experience, scientific evidence, and practical surgical tips that clinicians can apply in daily implant practice to improve peri-implant health and long-term treatment success.
