A silicone index of the diagnostic wax-up was fabricated and the temporary crown was polished and taken out of occlusion while the implant fully integrated (Fig. 3). Following 3 months of integration, the patient at- tended the practice for the restoration of the implant with a definitive crown. During this period, the soft tissue had been given time to mature and a beautiful molar soft tissue profile had formed (Figs. 4 & 5). time consuming; however, utilising a digital intraoral scan (CEREC Omnicam) a “gingival mask scan” can be taken to accurately replicate this soft tissue and use it to guide the subgingival emergence profile of the restoration (Fig. 6). Following removal of the temporary crown, a TiBase was placed into the fixture head and a scan body used as a reference point for the scanning of the implant (Figs. 7 & 8). Traditionally, capturing the detail of this soft tissue profile with analogue methods is complicated and Following digital intraoral scanning (DIOS) of the opposing arch, working arch and buccal bite, a digital 14 CAD/CAM 4 2017
