#14 Custom Healing Abutment

I have been doing all my single stage surgeries with custom healing abutments since Enamic became available.  It has been a learning process and took some time to incorporate the digital workflow for the implant procedure.  It takes us about 30 minute longer but saves more time from final Imaging.  For posterior teeth I can make the final crown from the initial impression.  For anteriors you have to evaluate to see if you need to re image.  I posted this for discussion, I love this workflow.  This custom healing abutment and crown had an emergence profile that I felt was too broad.  Love to hear how others would shape the gingival portion.
