Abstract
Peri-implant transmucosal tissue, an essential element of peri-implant esthetics, is critical to the success of prostheses in the esthetic zone. The optimal transmucosal tissue profile can be transferred to the master cast with the aid of custom impression posts. In this clinical technique, the initial cast used to fabricate provisional prostheses was conveniently used to aid in the time-efficient fabrication of multiple custom impression posts simultaneously using self-cured acrylic resin. This technique also applies to single restorations. In addition, the use of an initial cast as holder makes it easy to transfer custom impression posts to the mouth accurately and efficiently.
