Providing an esthetic restoration in the anterior region of the mouth has been the basis of peri-implant esthetics. To achieve optimal esthetics, in implant supported restorations, various patient and tooth related factors have to be taken into consideration. Peri-implant plastic surgery has been adopted to improve the soft tissue and hard tissue profi les, during and after implant placement. The various factors and the procedures related to enhancement of peri-implant esthetics have been discussed in this review article.
