Abstract:
Subcrestal implant placement helps gain vertical restorative space at the location of the implants; however, this leads to the development of a tall mucosal cuff, necessitating the use of tall abutments. This article describes the technique of gaining restorative space by decreasing the height of the mucosal cuff with an Erbium YAG laser.
