Purpose: While comparative outcome results for peri-implant crestal bone levels, mucosal margin position, and peri-implant indices have been reported, no studies are available that evaluate and compare the esthetic result of impressions performed immediately at implant placement with that of impressions performed on healed implants. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to evaluate the pink esthetic score of posterior implants restored with an immediate impression workflow compared to implants restored with a delayed impression workflow.

Material And Methods: Twenty-eight eligible participants who had received a single implant crown either in the premolar or molar regions at least 4 months before the study, were identified by an electronic health record review and scheduled for a single-visit study appointment.

Purpose: This is a cross-sectional clinical study to evaluate crestal bone levels, mucosal margin position, probing depths, bleeding on probing, and plaque and bleeding indices of implants restored with an immediate impression workflow compared to implants restored with a delayed impression workflow.

Materials And Methods: Patients who had received a posterior single implant crown in the premolar and molar regions were identified and scheduled for a single-visit study appointment. Outcome measurements included soft tissues peri-implant indices, peri-implant mucosal margin position, and crestal bone levels.

This case series presents an innovative technique for fabricating single implant crowns in which a digital scan was recorded immediately after the placement of the dental implant. This technique has been used over several years (January 2015 to April 2018) in 34 patients. The detailed workflow of 2 clinical treatments with successful clinical outcomes and short treatment time is described.
