In this week’s video, Dr. Robert Stanley—The Smile Engineer—dives into a critical yet often overlooked aspect of implant success: creating a stable, 3mm band of keratinized gingiva around your implant.
He walks through the Apical Gingival Displacement (AGD) Technique, a method he developed and published in Inside Dentistry, and explains why abutment selection is the key to long-term tissue health and ideal emergence profiles.Whether you're placing your first implant or refining your workflow, this video will help you think differently about how to biologically future-proof your cases.
