Simplified custom impression post for implant supported restorations.
The esthetic outcome of an implant supported restoration is greatly influenced by the relationship between the contours of the definitive prosthesis and the periimplant tissues. In this clinical technique, an implant analog holder and autopolymerizing acrylic resin were used to accurately register the soft tissue transition zone created by the interim restoration and transfer it to the impression post during the definitive impression.
