An 11-year-old girl presented with agenesis of the maxillary lateral incisors. Orthodontic treatment was performed to close the midline diastema and create adequate space between the central incisors and canines to replace the missing maxillary lateral incisors on both sides. Two-piece implants were placed, and shoulderless abutments were prepared following the "biologically oriented preparation technique" (BOPT) protocol. The soft tissues were allowed to heal directly on the prosthetic emergence profile of the interim crown restorations after implant exposure. Two months later, the gingival tissue adapted to the prosthetic components in a specular manner. No complications were noted at 24 months. The BOPT protocol, originally described for natural teeth, may be applied to dental implants with shoulderless abutments.

Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and accuracy of a proposed duplication technique in terms of one- and three-dimensional discrepancies between an original abutment and polyurethane duplicates obtained through a conventional workflow in single-implant rehabilitation.
Materials And Methods: A titanium, shoulderless abutment was chosen for a single-implant cemented rehabilitation. The master cast was made using a plastic-based die system, and the implant portion was separated.

Background: Clinical and radiographic evaluation of soft and hard tissues around convergent collar implants and shoulderless abutments.
Material And Methods: Ambispective longitudinal analytical study with a sample size of 32 implants in 21 patients treated in a private dental clinic. Patients were divided into two groups: Prama Implants or group 1 (n=21) and Shelta implants combined with XA abutment or group 2 (n=11).

The implant–abutment connection geometry is considered to be one of the factors that most affects peri-implant bone remodelling. Purpose: The primary purpose was to compare the clinical and radiographical differences between implants sharing the same macrogeometry but with two different connections.
