Estudio: Análisis del comportamiento de los tejidos blandos durante la toma de impresiones

Volume of unsupported peri-implant soft tissue over time: A cross-sectional observation study, Galibourg A, Dumoncel J, Cormary J, Maret D - Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry. 2021 June;125(6):883-889

This study analyses the behaviour of peri-implant soft tissues when they are no longer supported, as will be the case during impression taking when the healing abutment is unscrewed.

It concludes that the emergence profile collapses significantly when the tissues are unsupported for 30 seconds or more.
