Influence of horizontal dimensions around single gap and adjacent zirconia implants on the papilla - a cross-sectional survey.

CONCLUSIONS: Horizontal interproximal dimensions around zirconia implants showed very weak influence on the papilla height. A high or a low contact point position of the crowns did not affect the papilla deficit. Conflict of Interest and sources of funding: All authors reported no conflict of interest. There were no sources of funding for the research.
