Simplified implant dentistry for the restorative dentist: integrating the team approach.
In implant-supported restorations, the anticipated prosthesis determines the implant placement and angulation, therefore, the process of restorative treatment should begin at the time of surgical implant placement. This paper presents the implementation procedure of a forthcoming design modification of an implant system, developed to achieve the optional restorative objectives while maintaining the long-term success rates. First impressions are taken at the time of implant placement, resulting in more time for the laboratory, less chair-side time, and fewer radiographic verifications, while enhancing provisional and final aesthetic results for the patient.
