What it covers
In this video lecture, Dr Diego Lops provides valuable insights into the effective conditioning of peri-implant soft tissue using provisional restorations to achieve optimal aesthetic outcomes. He explains the crucial steps involved in transferring information about peri-implant soft tissue morphology to dental laboratory technicians. This ensures precise communication and collaboration between clinicians and technicians for the fabrication of final prostheses that harmonize seamlessly with natural soft tissue contours around implants.
In particular, this lecture covers the following topics:
- Conditioning peri-implant soft tissue with provisional restorations for optimal aesthetic results
- Techniques for transferring information on peri-implant soft tissue morphology to dental laboratory technicians
