Clinical, Immunological and Microbiological Improvements With Zinc-Coated Healing Abutments During the Healing Phase

Key Points

• The main aim is to evaluate the effects of zinc-coated healing abutments on peri-implant soft tissue health.
• Evaluated clinical and immunological effects during the healing phase
• Implemented zinc-coated healing abutments as the intervention
• Conducted microbiological assessments of soft tissue health
• Zinc-coated abutments improved early peri-implant soft tissue health
• Demonstrated positive immunological responses
• Found a need for further studies due to potential confounding factors
