Figure 10

The fabrication of the prosthesis is completed in the laboratory (a), which after a few hours return the Toronto Bridge to the dentist for clinical application. The clinician delivers the prosthesis to the patient (b), after a careful check of the occlusion that must be perfectly balanced; then, the clinician closes the holes of the cylinders with Teflon soaked in chlorhexidine 5% and light curing flowable composite resin (c). The panoramic radiograph shows the titanium framework and the perfect adaptation of this structure on implant abutments (d).
