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. The immediate digital implant scan workflow concept reduces treatment time for posterior single implant-supported crowns.
