Abstract

Establishing continuous and symmetric gingival levels is essential to achieving optimal gingival esthetics. Adjustment of the subgingival contour of the interim prosthesis is useful for managing gingival levels. This article illustrates how to accurately and predictably transfer the adjusted subgingival contour of interim restorations to the definitive restorations by using zirconia copings customized with casting wax.
