Case report: temporary restoration for a single tooth implant prosthesis with adverse axial inclination of the fixture.
Providing an acceptable temporary restoration can be a challenge on a single implant where surgical considerations have dictated an adverse axial alignment. Prefabricated temporary abutments do not incorporate compensation for such implant positions. A temporary restoration can serve multiple functions. This case report describes a technique to provide an acceptable temporary restoration for a malaligned single tooth implant.
