Patient satisfaction and esthetic outcome after immediate placement and provisionalization of single‐tooth implants involving a definitive individual abutment

Abstract

Immediate placement and provisionalization of single-tooth implants involving a definitive individual abutment and provisional crown followed by later placement of a definitive crown demonstrated high subjective and professional satisfaction. Generally, the professionals seem to be more critical than the patients. A strong correlation was observed between the professional VAS scores and the PES and WES scoring systems.
