Lady, 40s, #8 implant buccally positioned, Zirconia abutment.  The gingival line is higher than that of #9 (Fig.1).  #8 provisional is more bulky than #9 (Fig.2,3). 

The discolored #9 has been internally and externally bleached at home and in office.  A fiber post has been placed.

Shades B2, 3 are chosen before prep (Fig.4-7).  After prep, shades A4, C4 and D4 are used as stump ones (Fig.8-11).  Fig.12 shows new provisionals.
