<body><sec><title>Introduction</title>
<p>Atherton’s patch is the stretch of the gingival sulcus, creating a gingival depression, in the tension area to the orthodontically moved tooth (<xref rid="B1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
). During orthodontic site development, the interproximal papilla remains adjacent to the tooth that is not moving (<xref rid="B1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
). This interproximal papilla is a parameter of great importance from esthetic point of view in implant supported rehabilitations (<xref rid="B2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
).</p>
<p>Kokich (<xref rid="B3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
) proposed an advance flap to create the papilla adjacent to an implant in an edentulous space with Atherton´s patch. The technique consisted on placing a 2 mm healing abutment following implant placement, and using a submerged technique. Choquet et al. (<xref rid="B4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
) performed a study where found that, between an implant and a tooth, a papilla will form in 100% of the cases, if there were 5 mm or less between the interproximal pick of the bone and the contact point of the implant restoration and the tooth.</p>
<p>To our knowledge, no clinical studies or case report has been performed in order to describe implant rehabilita-tions at Atherton´s patch areas. So, the objective of this case report is to describe a surgical and prosthetic technique to create a lost papilla following orthodontic space opening (Atherton´s patch) through implant supported rehabilitation.</p>

<sec><title>Case Report</title>
<p>- Treatment plan</p>
<p>A 35 year-old female nonsmoker, without systemic diseases that could alter the tissue integration of dental implants presented for treatment in a university dental clinic. The patient had absence of the left upper canine (impacted tooth extracted in the past), and treatment plan involved orthodontic site development and implant supported rehabilitation (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>
). After orthodontic treatment, where the left upper lateral incisor was moved mesially to open ideal space for implant restoration, clinical examination showed an Atherton´s patch at the distal area of the lateral incisor (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>
). Enough mesio-distal space and bucco-palatal width were recorded. Radiographic examinations showed no interproximal bone loss adjacent to the teeth (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>
).</p>

</p>
<p>- Surgical procedure</p>
<p>Implant surgery was carried out with local anesthesia, (4% articaine and adrenalin 1:100,000; Ultracain®, Aventis Pharma, Bad Soden, Germany). The flap design consisted of mucoperiosteal flap with mid crest incision and intrasulcular extensions of the adjacent teeth (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>
). The implant used was a bone-level implant featuring a chemically modified, sandblasted and acid-etched surface in the endosseous portion, with a platform diameter of 4.1 mm and a length of 12 mm. (Straumann Bone Level SLActive® Basel, Switzerland.) An ideal three dimension implant placement was carefully carried out. Special attention was paid to place the implant platform around 2 mm far from interproximal aspect from adjacent teeth (the presence of this bone is going to support the future papilla). To minimize peri-implant bone remodeling, switching platform concept implant was used. Submerged technique was performed with nonabsorbable sutures (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>
). Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis was initiated 12 hours prior to surgery and maintained one week postsurgically (amoxicillin 500 mg. 3 times a day for 7 days). Post-surgical medication also included Ibuprofen 600 mg. 3 times a day for 2 days, and chlorhexidine digluconate (0.1%) rinse 2 times per day for 10 days. Sutures were removed after 1 week. Second surgery was performed 3 month later with circular incision slightly palatal to the implant platform with the aim to push the soft tissue buccally (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>
).</p>

</p>
<p>- Restorative procedure</p>
<p>Impressions were taken, 2 weeks later, using close tray technique, and screw-retained provisional acrylic crowns were inserted to initiate the peri-implant soft tissue conditioning phase. Special care was conducted on the pres-sure on the peri-implant mucosa, and contact points between implant restoration and adjacent teeth. At this moment, total absence of papilla was recorded, being this absence more pronounced at the Atherton´s patch area. At this moment, around 2 to 3 mm of root cementum of the distal aspect of the left upper lateral incisor was clinically visible (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
). Periapical radiograph showed correct level of the interproximal bone at the adjacent teeth (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
). Two and four month later, the provisional crown was enlarged, to optimize the papilla fill. Six month after abutment connection, complete papilla formation was recorded both the distal and at the Atherton´s patch area (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
), and a scalloped profile was present (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
).</p>

</p>
<p>Final impressions were taken using open tray technique. Customized impression post (using Duralay resin) was used to record the emergence profile (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
). Direct screw retained zirconia structure was design and produce using CAD/CAM technology (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
). Final direct screw rehabilitation was inserted and papilla fill was recorded at this point (Fig. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
).</p>
<p>- Follow up</p>
<p>Radiographic study did not reveal any signs of continuous peri-implant radiolucency throughout the observation period (3,6,12 month). Final follow up was carried out 18 month after definitive restoration placement. Stability of hard and soft tissues was recorded.</p>

<sec sec-type="discussion"><title>Discussion</title>
<p>The aim of the present case report was to describe a surgical and prosthetic procedure to achieve papilla forma-tion in an edentulous single implant restoration with Atherton´s patch. At the end of the treatment, papilla formation was reach. In this case, the treatment was performed in an adult woman. Kokich (<xref rid="B3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
) pointed that the age of the patient is an important factor in relation with Atherton´s patch management. If the patient remains growth potential (young), papilla formation after orthodontic treatment is predictable, but in adults patients without tooth eruption potential, papilla will not be formed.</p>
<p>In order to achieve papilla formation in adult patients with Atherton´s patch, Kokich (<xref rid="B3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
) proposed a surgical technique including an advance flap to cover the implant. The technique consisted on placing a 2 mm healing abutment following implant placement, and using a submerged technique. With this surgical approach, he reached papilla formation. In the present case report, a tension free flap was used to submerge the implant, and in the provisional restorative phase attention was paid in the distance between the contact point and the pick of bone next to the adjacent tooth.</p>
<p>The level of the papilla is independent of the proximal bone level next to the implant, but is related to the inter-proximal bone level next to the adjacent tooth (<xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
,<xref rid="B6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
). Thus, the peak of interproximal bone determines the level of papilla. A distance of 1.5 mm between tooth and implant is necessary to maintain the interproximal height of the bone after remodeling of the biologic width (<xref rid="B7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
). If there are 5 mm or less between the interproximal pick of the bone and the contact point of the implant restoration and the tooth, a papilla will form in 100% of the cases (<xref rid="B4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
). In the present case enough mesio-distal space and correct three dimensional positioning of the implant (<xref rid="B8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
) was achieved, so maintenance of the distal pick of bone of the lateral incisor could be achieved. Moreover using switching platform implant, the peri-implant bone remodeling diminishes compare with straight platform implants. This factor is important in order to preserve the interproximal pick of bone of adjacent teeth (<xref rid="B9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
). Lee et al. (<xref rid="B10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
) also observed between adjacent implants, that the dimension of the keratinized mucosa (mucogingival junction-pick of papilla) was related with the dimension of the papilla.</p>
<p>Different surgical techniques to generate interproximal papilla have been tried (<xref rid="B11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
-<xref rid="B14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
), but because no long-term studies have been conducted, no particular technique is recommended over another (<xref rid="B15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
).</p>
<p>A clinical case report where papilla formation was achieved at an Atherton´s patch area was presented. The surgical and restorative treatment are explained and discussed. The present clinical case shows that if interproximal pick of bone at the adjacent teeth is present, enough mesio-distal space exists, and correct implant positioning is achieved, papilla will form in cases with Atherton´s patch.</p>
