To the best of the authors' knowledge, this study represents the first application of CBCTs, intraoral scans, and clinical probe depths for noninvasive supracrestal tissue attachment measurements. This study advocates for a personalized assessment of supracrestal attachments, incorporating tooth position and other dentogingival components. The study emphasizes the importance for practitioners to consider the specific patient gingival phenotypes during restorative or surgical planning to avoid adverse outcomes.
