Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Scanning time (healing abutment-scan peg vs scan body)	The scanning time by intraoral scanner will be recorded in both groups	Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Primary	Quality of proximal contacts of crowns fabricated by intraoral scanning of scan peg vs scan body	The proximal contacts will be evaluated with dental floss; Open: an open contact will be reported if there is no resistance against floss; Ideal: an ideal contact will be reported if there is some resistance to interproximal floss insertion.; Tight: a tight contact will be reported if it prevents the passage of floss through the proximal contact point.; The percentage of proximal contacts will be calculated for each group at day of crown delivery, 3 months and 6 months later.	Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Primary	Quality of occlusal contacts of crowns fabricated by intraoral scanning of scan peg vs scan body	An evaluation of occlusion will be executed with 2 layers of shim stock of 12µ.; No adjustment: if the shimstock is held when the patient clenches and does not need any adjustment.; Mild adjustment: If the shim stock is held after simple closure, the occlusal contact will be reported as heavy and received mild chairside adjustment.; Major adjustment: If the crown is returned to the manufacturing technician, the adjustment is considered major.; Out of occlusion: If the shim stock passes without resistance after clenching, an open contact will be reported.; The percentage of occlusal contacts will be calculated for each group at day of crown delivery, 3 months and 6 months later.	Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Primary	Evaluation of occlusion by digital occlusal analyzer	occlusal force of implant-supported restorations will be measured	Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Secondary	Peri-implant Probing Depth (scan peg vs customized healing abutment)	Peri-implant probing depth refers to the distance from the gingival margin till the point of least resistance. The peri-implant probing depth will be measured using a graduated plastic autoclavable periodontal probe. The probe will be held parallel to the long axis of the implant and introduced with light force to the peri-implant sulcus.; Measurements will be made at 4 sites around each implant; mesiobuccal, disto-buccal, mesio-palatal and disto-palatal. Probing depth of 1 mm or less will be recorded as 1 mm, and those exceeding 1 mm, but less than 2 mm, will be recorded as 2 mm, and so on. The mean for each implant will be calculated.	up to 6 months
Secondary	Clinical Attachment level (scan peg vs customized healing abutment)	It is the distance from the junction implant/abutment to the most apically probable portion, in millimeters. Assessment of the clinical attachment level will be performed simultaneously while measuring the peri-implant probing depth.	up to 6 months
Secondary	Modified gingival index (scan peg vs customized healing abutment)	The peri-implant mucosal tissues around the implants will be assessed according to Lobene and Weatherford. The category criteria for assessment will be as follows: 0: Absence of inflammation, normal gingiva.; Mild inflammation, slight color change, little change in texture of any portion of, but not entire, marginal, or papillary gingival unit (localized).; Mild inflammation, slight color change, little change in texture involving the entire or papillary gingival unit (generalized).; Moderate inflammation, redness, and edema.; Severe inflammation, marked redness, edema, ulceration, and spontaneous bleeding It will be measured at 4 sites around each implant (mesially, distally, labially/ buccaly, lingually) then, the mean record will be calculated for each implant.	up to 6 months
Secondary	Marginal bone loss (scan peg vs customized healing abutment)	Periapical digital radiographs will be taken at time of crown insertion (baseline) and up to 6 months later. Changes in the marginal bone level will be evaluated every time using standardized radiographs. To achieve the same orthoradial perspective on the implants, X-ray film positioning devices will be used. After importing screenshots of the radiographs, the amount of bone loss will be measured.	up to 6 months
