There's actually two ways of doing this it's just to make it even more complicated okay so you can put your customized healing abutment underneath and then put your roschet on top. You don't always know which one you're going to need until the implant goes into place so you either make a judgment call beforehand or you add a little bit material to it or you cut alittle bit material away yeah I mean that makes sense to me right if you go with the ovete and then I drill it away it just takes time it's annoying and they have to go through polishing right hundred percent.

Episode notes
Rochette Bridges are a popular option for interim tooth replacement whilst implants in the aesthetic zone are ‘cooking’. In this episode with Dr Pav Khaira we discuss his interim restoration protocols using Rochette Bridges and Dentures, as well as gaining an insight in to custom healing abutments.
Which cement is best for Rochette Bridges? How do you remove them? Ceramic or Composite pontic? When might we consider a Denture instead?
We then expand in to soft tissue augmentation at the time of implant surgery to get the best pink aesthetics. This episode is packed full of gems even if you do not place implants – much of the benefits of soft tissue augmentation can be applied to non-implant fixed prosthodontics.
