CONTEMPORARY ESTHETIC PERIODONTICS in the surgical site while rinsing with 0.12 % chlorhexidine gluconate( three times daily) for 2 weeks, take 500 mg Amoxicillin( every 8 hours) for 7 days and 800 mg Ibuprofen( every 8 hours) as needed for discomfort. The postoperative followups were conducted at 1 and 8 weeks. Clinical Outcomes Healing was uneventful at both the donor and recipient sites. At the 1-week follow-up only visual examination was performed which revealed slight erythema and edema consistent with normal post-surgical healing and no swelling or infection was present( Fig. 23). At the 8-week follow-up the surgical area was irrigated gently with 0.12 % chlorhexidine and plaque covering the healing abutment and adjacent tooth was removed with Q-tips soaked in chlorhexidine. At the 8-week follow up, the patient reported no gingival discomfort when brushing the healing abutment with a soft toothbrush. Clinical examination revealed a deepened vestibule and gain in attached and keratinized gingiva on the buccal aspect of the implant. Fig. 24 A and B show the preoperative and 8-week postoperative clinical presentation.
