Abstract

Tissue integration at the interface of healed functioning dental implants occurs in three possible modes. Before examining mainstream step-by-step treatment, it is important to know what these three modes are, and how they differ. The practitioner determines and controls the mode of tissue integration. This article carefully examines the physiology, biomechanics, and clinical considerations associated with each of the three modes of tissue integration.
