Soft Tissue Complications After Implant Placement – Diagnosis, Management & Connective Tissue Grafting

Dr. Farhad Boltchi

CDOCS Faculty

Even with meticulous planning and technique, anterior implants placed slightly too facially can lead to gingival recession — and this video shows exactly how to recognize and manage that complication. Dr. Boltchi walks through a full anterior implant case from tunneling socket graft and flapless placement to a corrective connective tissue graft with belt-and-suspender suturing one year post-restoration.
