Abstract

This article demonstrates a clinical case of the rehabilitation of a maxillary anterior tooth with a single-implant using a digital workflow. Intraoral scanner-based mandibular movement data were incorporated into the workflow for the fabrication of an immediate provisional restoration to preclude unintended loading on the restoration. The digital workflow enabled minimum adjustment to the restoration during centric and eccentric movements and allowed to achieve esthetic outcomes for both the provisional and definitive restorations.
