Title: Immediate custom implant provisionalization: a prosthetic technique. Author: Lemongello GJ. Journal: Pract Proced Aesthet Dent; 2007 Jun; 19(5):273-9. PubMed ID: 17679316. Abstract: Surgical and restorative techniques that can reduce the loss of hard and soft tissues that often accompany implant placement are desirable. The use of a customized provisional restoration will provide a mechanism to assist the clinician in achieving the preservation of hard and soft tissue.

This article will focus on the use of a provisional restoration after traditional healing.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
