S. The implant is placed to position the fixture head at the best vertical relationship relative the adjacent teeth and other implants. This may require significant countersinking or alveolectomy. The final ridge contour surrounding the fixture heads and adjacent teeth need not be established until second stage abutment connection.

T. The redundant ridge crest may be resected or alternatively collapsed over the top of the implant healing cap. Final ridge contouring can be done after establishment of osseointegration.
