Unfavorable implant placement may cause difficulties in making implant impressions or scans. If the impression posts or scan bodies cannot be properly seated on the implants because of contact between them, adjustment with a rotary instrument or the use of gold cylinders is necessary. This article introduces a technique for obviating the clinical difficulties without the need to adjust the impression posts or scan bodies or the use of gold cylinders.
