The biologic width is considered to be essential for maintaining gingival health, especially in the case of teeth in need of restoration. The large use of osseointegrated implants in modern dentistry and the increasing esthetic demands for implant rehabilitations has focused attention on soft tissue reactions to implant placement especially in the area of soft tissue relationship to implant surface. The presence of a quite constant dimension of soft tissue attachment to dental implants, similar for many features to dentogingival junction, has been well documented in histological studies on animal models. Based on similar histological studies, the influence of different variables, like the surgical technique, the surgical protocol, implant loading, implant structure, titanium surfaces and abutment materials on peri-implant biological width has been evaluated. This review demonstrates the present knowledge about this important zone that forms the basis for a successful implant.
