Background and ObjectiveIn recent years, the concept of the peri-implant phenotype has become a new standard for the clinical evaluation of the soft and hard tissues surrounding dental implants. Improving this phenotype enhances the likelihood of achieving long-term favorable results and is a necessary consideration during implant planning. Stable peri-implant tissue support is also crucial for the functional and aesthetic value of implant restoration. Herein, the authors review the clinical significance of the peri-implant phenotype and assess the timing of treatment strategies for improving peri-implant phenotype elements. MethodsA literature search was performed to retrieve papers on peri-implant tissue management and clinical outcomes published up to November 24th, 2022 in PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Scopus. Key Content and FindingsThe optimal time to improve peri-implant bone thickness (PBT) is with augmentation procedures before implant surgery or at the same time as first-stage surgery. Similarly, issues associated with keratinized mucosa width (KMW) and mucosal thickness (MT) should be addressed before final restoration. The establishment of supracrestal tissue height (STH) depends on the MT and implant depth of the patient. Furthermore, special attention should be paid to the effect of the peri-implant phenotype on the prognosis of immediate implant placement in the aesthetic zone. ConclusionsThe long-term success of implant restoration depends on careful planning that considers appropriate interventions for improving the peri-implant phenotype at different stages of treatment to reduce iatrogenic variables.
