Abstract:
Commercially produced provisional cylinders are commonly used during fabrication of fixed, provisional implant restorations. A procedure is presented for the fabrication of fixed, provisional implant restorations using laboratory-fabricated, autopolymerizing acrylic resin cylinders. These cylinders offer a number of advantages over commercially produced cylinders and may reduce the treatment cost of implant prosthodontics.
