  • Title: Preservation of soft tissue contours with immediate screw-retained provisional implant crown.
    Author: Al-Harbi SA, Edgin WA.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 2007 Oct; 98(4):329-32. PubMed ID: 17936132.
    Abstract:
    When a patient with a missing or failing maxillary anterior tooth desires immediate tooth replacement, fabrication of a provisional restoration can be challenging. Due to individual anatomical variations in tooth shape, size, and supporting soft and hard tissue structures, there are no premanufactured components with an anatomical emergence profile that universally suits all individual situations. This article describes the fabrication of a screw-retained immediate provisional restoration that fulfills anatomic, biologic, and esthetic requirements.
