(A) Master laboratory cast with 2-piece balance abutment that has been modified to fit the dental arch and provide space for the development of an esthetic restoration. (B) Same clinical case as shown in (A). Note the emergence (biological width) profile evident in soft tissue and that the top of the implant is not visible because the soft tissue covers the top of the implant fixture. (C) Same clinical case from occlusal view, with abutment in place
