: Digital workflows in implant prosthodontics continue to evolve, yet standardized protocols integrating clinician-driven abutment customization and peri-implant soft-tissue conditioning remain limited. This pilot study aimed to present and evaluate a progressive gingival digital workflow for cement-retained implant-supported restorations based on chairside adjustment of prefabricated abutments according to gingival...
