Abstract:
A procedure is described for fabricating a removable resilient soft-tissue replica that accurately replicates the contoured emergence profile of an interim implant-supported restoration on a cast fabricated by 3D printing. The technique uses digital scanning and 3D printing technologies to produce a 3D printed replica of the implant-supported interim crown, which is then used to fabricate the custom soft-tissue replica. This straightforward technique allows the accurate replication of the emergence profile without retaining the interim crown or fabricating a new one. No additional clinical appointments are needed.
