“A new concept of immediate loading in single-stage implantation with the creation of a soft tissue barrier and ideal emergence profile”

What is the WHS Concept?
For mucogingival integration of dental implants It is necessary to ensure the presence of three criteria. We called this treatment approach WHS Soft Tissue Management. W – for Width which means there is a sufficient volume of soft tissues, above the implant platform, around 3-5mm, H – for Height which means there is a sufficient area of the attached gum in the peri-implant area, around 4 mm, and S – for Stability which excludes or minimizes dis- and reconnection of the suprastructure of the dental implant during treatment stages.
