Abstract
Background/Objectives: The biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT) is a vertical tooth preparation approach that eliminates a conventional finish line and positions the prosthetic margin within the gingival sulcus, aiming to promote peri-restorative soft tissue adaptation through controlled gingival remodeling. This article describes a clinical case report of a hybrid impression protocol combined with a digital workflow intended to address some of the main clinical limitations of BOPT, particularly the recording of deep subgingival margins and the transfer of the emergence profile from the provisional to the definitive restoration. Methods: The proposed technique combined a conventional silicone impression to obtain a complete reading of the gingival sulcus with intraoral digital scanning, complemented by extraoral scanning of the provisional restoration to reproduce its subgingival morphology within the definitive prosthetic workflow. Results: Within the limitations of a single clinical case with short-term follow-up, this hybrid approach showed a satisfactory esthetic outcome and favorable short-term peri-coronal soft tissue behavior. Conclusions: This hybrid workflow may represent a feasible clinical option for transferring the cervical contour and emergence profile to the definitive prosthesis in anterior BOPT restorations.
