[QUOTE="victormasi, post: 144699, member: 1715"] There are times when you have no choice but to overlap the soft tissue to get the correct esthetics. An option is to add a second implant mesial to the existing one. What we do is a 2 part/screw retained restoration. You make the abutment, then the PFM with an access occlusal hole. When the clinician cements the two at chairside, he can then unscrew the entire "stack" and polish off the excess cement. It still is a hygienic issue for the patient but you at least eliminate the cement problem'. Waterpik the sucker on a daily basis. [/QUOTE]
