Simplified SPAL technique to provide adequate peri-implant phenotype: A pilot study.
BACKGROUND Correction of peri-implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) and optimization of the peri-implant soft-tissue phenotype are critical for long-term peri-implant tissues stability. A simplified, one-stage, transmucosal variant of the subperiosteal peri-implant augmented layer (sSPAL) technique was appraised and evaluated...
