■ The patient was adv<strong>is</strong>ed to return to the referring dent<strong>is</strong>t<br />

for fitting the removable denture and to replace the<br />

two gingiva formers with two prefabricated EsthetiCaps<br />

(4.5 mm).<br />

■ The patient did not follow the instructions and only v<strong>is</strong>ited<br />

the dent<strong>is</strong>t eight weeks later, resulting in damage caused<br />

by the removable denture.<br />

■ Damage to the labial surface and the interdental papillae<br />

can be seen.<br />

DR. A. E. KENNEY became involved in the case eight weeks<br />

after placement of the implants.<br />

■ She removed the gingiva formers and replaced them with<br />

two prefabricated <strong>Friadent</strong> EsthetiCaps, cut off the cylinder<br />

of the EsthetiCaps and adjusted the removable denture.<br />

■ After eight weeks the status of the soft t<strong>is</strong>sue had improved<br />

greatly and the gingival contour was virtually perfect.<br />

■ After removal of the EsthetiCaps two transfer abutments<br />

with transfer caps were placed for making the impression.<br />
