Peri-implant mucosal tissue attachment: Narrative review
The peri‑implant mucosa (PIM) is formed during the wound healing process that follows implant and abutment placement. The PIM is known to play crucial roles in function; acting as a biologic barrier for bacterial infiltration and maintaining the mucosal health of the implant, and for implant estheti...

| Summary: | The peri‑implant mucosa (PIM) is formed during the wound healing process that follows implant and abutment placement. The PIM is known to play crucial roles in function; acting as a biologic barrier for bacterial infiltration and maintaining the mucosal health of the implant, and for implant esthetics. This narrative review presents:• Differences between periodontal soft tissue attachment and peri‑implant mucosal tissue attachment• Development of the osseointegration and its effect on PIM• Different Implant - abutment interface configurations including one- VS two-piece implants, bone-level VS tissue-level implants, and PIM in different implant collars• Engineering in surface characteristics |
