ABSTRACT:
An anatomically dimensioned healing cap is provided for use during second stage surgery of a dental implant which preserves the actual tooth contour within the gingiva to facilitate accurate crown reproduction exhibiting a proper emergence profile. The healing cap is a unitary member that is dimensioned in accordance with the removed tooth and which has a coupling that directly engages the head of any implant without scoring or damaging the implant. The healing cap also provides an occlusal lip to prevent the overgrowth of gingiva tissue during second stage healing.
