The high cost of precision-fitting, machine-milled implant components is a major concern, and the dentist with a busy implant practice must stock numerous components at considerable expense. In this article, the use of a disposable implant mount is described as an adjunct for a positional index during stage-I surgery, immediate provisional restoration at stage-II surgery, verification jig, and implant-supported record base. By reusing the precision-fitting implant mount that is supplied free of charge by the manufacturer, the dentist can reduce the overhead costs required to provide implant prosthodontic treatment.

Soft and hard tissue ridge deformities are prevalent in areas of tooth loss and trauma and can compromise esthetic outcomes. Only a full understanding of the severity of the dimensional defects, the reconstructive techniques available, and the functional and esthetic needs of the final implant restoration will allow the design of a treatment approach that will achieve the desired outcome. This article emphasizes the synergistic relation of the osseous, gingival, and restorative triad in treatment planning. In addition, a systematic approach to the enhancement of this triad, in the partially edentulous patient, is outlined as part of a revised protocol for achieving optimal esthetics in implant therapy.
