Summary:
Surgical and restorative techniques that can reduce the loss of hard and soft tissues that often accompany implant placement are desirable. The use of a customized provisional restoration will provide a mechanism to assist the clinician in achieving the preservation of hard and soft tissue. This article will explore clinical scenarios in which the fabrication of an immediate, customized provisional abutment and restoration can be utilized to guide tissue healing and improve the aesthetics of implant restorations. This article will focus on the use of a provisional restoration after traditional healing.

The Hidden Value of Digital Radiography for Caries Detection
Digital radiography allows the dentist to use powerful image analysis tools to extract information from the image that might otherwise be missed by visual inspection alone. Historically interproximal caries detection is done by visually inspecting the radiograph for evidence of a radiolucency produced by the decay and visually determining if the decay is deep enough that a restoration is required.
