ABSTRACT Introduction: Recurrent abutment substitutions may physically irritate the mucosal (soft tissue) barrier, which may cause additional toxic irritants and germs to enter the mucosal implant barrier and weaken the tissues surrounding implant. The creation of a “definitive abutment” may lessen the likelihood of tissue losses around the implant. Determining the characters of the peri-implant tissue after the placement of the definitive abutments and multiple abutment replacement was the goal of this study. Materials and Procedures: Forty missing teeth were replaced with implants in matched subjects. Parameters assessed were “distance of cement enamel junction to alveolar crest and distance of CEJ to gingival margin; bleeding on probing, Sulcus probing depth, and peri-implant marginal bone loss.” Subjects were randomly assigned for the two groups of intervention. All the measurements were documented at designated timelines and compared for the statistical variance where P < 0.05 was considered as significant. Results: In the control and test groups, the peri-implant marginal bone level rose from baseline to 3 months. There were no appreciable differences between the CEJ-AC and CEJ-GM groups when the clinical and radiographic parameters of each group were evaluated. Throughout all of the time points, the soft tissue borders in both groups remained comparably steady. Conclusion: The study’s findings suggest that using implants with definite abutments is more advantageous for obtaining better maintenance in terms of the health of the tissues that surround the implants.
