Purpose: Evaluate the esthetic outcome of ridge augmentation using cancellous bone-block allografts, late implant placement, and immediate loading in the atrophic anterior maxilla, by PES (pink esthetic score) and WES (white esthetic score) indexes. Materials and Methods: Retrospective cohort study. Inclusion criteria were bone loss of at least 3 mm horizontally and 3 mm vertically according to preliminary CBCT; ridge augmentation using cancellous bone-block allografts; six months later the implant insertion and immediately loaded. PES-WES index was used for esthetic assessment of soft tissues surrounding the final implant-supported prosthesis (ISP). Results: All twenty-five successive individuals were included. The mean follow-up was 12.1 ± 56 months (range, 42–90 months). The mean PES index and WES index were 7 ± 1.74 (range: 5–10) and 8.4 ± 2.12 (range: 5–10), respectively. The mean total combination of PES index and WES index (PES/WES) was 15.3 ± 2.85 (range: 12–20). All ISPs had an overall score >12 (the defined threshold of clinical acceptability). Conclusions: Ridge augmentation in the atrophic anterior maxilla using cancellous bone-block allografts and immediate loading allows a stable esthetic result of the soft and hard tissues over the years (follow-up of 42–90 months).

“…The optimal position of the implant is 2–4 mm palatal to the buccal bone profile [ 2 ]. Objective criteria, PES and WES (Pink Esthetic Score and White Esthetic Score), were developed to assess the esthetics of ISP in the anterior maxilla [ 3 , 4 , 5 ].…”

“…The photographs were prepared as printed and in the form of an electronic file. Evaluation of intraoral photographs was conducted by a dental prosthesis specialist and a student in the following framework: Maximum total PES score A score range of 0-2 should be assigned, where overall a score of 0-10 should be obtained from the measure (PES) (Lanza, 2017 andCho, 2010). To reduce the bias and enhance the replicability of the results, each photography was measured twice and in two different days based on PES index.…”

“…After data collection, the information was analyzed by SPSS 18 (Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The data collection method in this study was based on investigating the photographs prepared from the patients and scoring the issues involved in PES scoring (Lanza, 2017;Cho, 2010).

Introduction: Due to the fundamental role of esthetics in the outcomes of dental treatments, especially in the anterior region (esthetic zone), the necessity of considering the matter of esthetics in clinical studies has become into focus in the current era. The aim of this study was the evaluation of esthetic outcomes of two treatment protocols in the treatment of congenital uni-lateral missing of maxillary lateral incisors as well as patient satisfaction from the treatment outcomes.Methods: in this study the sample size was 24 people (16 women and 8 men), These individuals sought dental treatment for replacement of the congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisor. Convenience sampling method was used and patients were divided into two groups regarding the kind of treatment they received. The two treatment protocols included: 1. Space closure by means of orthodontic treatment and then reshaping the canines; and 2. Space regaining by means of orthodontic treatment and replacing the lateral incisor with dental implants. Photographs of patients were acquired from the frontal view with retraction of the lips using digital cameras. Photographs were evaluated for Pink esthetic score.Results: No significant difference was detected between the two study groups in the evaluated factors in this study. Conclusion:The results of this study indicated that there is no significant difference in esthetic results in the two groups. Furthermore, both groups lead to similar results in patient satisfaction from treatment outcomes.

“…Eine aktuelle Publikation wendet den modifizierten PES/WES an einem Patientenfall an und gleicht die Punktzahl mit der subjektiven Wahrnehmung des Patienten ab (visuelle Analogskala). Im Vorher-Nachher-Vergleich zeigt sich eine übereinstimmende positive Veränderung beider Skalen [20]. Solange es keine Alternativen zum PES/ WES gibt, ist er als geeignetes Messinstrument anzunehmen.…”

ZusammenfassungIn einer Welt, in der Ästhetik und äußeres Aussehen immer bedeutender werden, spielt insbesondere die Schönheit der Zähne in den Vorstellungen der Patienten eine dominante Rolle, was sich als Leistungsangebot und auch wesentlicher Bestandteil der meisten Praxishomepages widerspiegelt. Gutes Aussehen steht in direktem Zusammenhang mit einem attraktiven Lächeln und schönen Zähnen und damit einer gesteigerten Lebensqualität.
