Alternatively, the use of shortened multifunctional caps, individually supplemented with plastic, is an option for individual healing caps. As shown in the case presentation, we most often use the iSy Esthomic healing caps after taking the impression with the multifunctional caps: they are available in three diameters (S, M, and L) and different gingival heights. This is a very easy and efficient way to achieve an emergence profile, analogous to the workflow of the CAMLOG System, by successively using bottleneck, cylindrical, or wide body healing caps. The implant base of the iSy Implant fulfils several functions simultaneously here: as an implant placement instrument, as a primary healing cap for transgingival healing or after exposure, as an impression post, a temporary abutment and a definitive adhesive abutment for individual abutments. This allows a very efficient workflow with minimal use of additional implant parts, which enables an efficient and cost-effective treatment. Our thanks go to MDT Florian Kubitschek and the entire team of GL Dental, Penzberg, for the technical implementation of the case.
