After the margin of the provisional (Fig.19 P) is trimmed, the provisional is recemented. It is expected that the gingiva will gradually cover the inferior portion of the abutment (A). Next visit, the mesial margin of the provisional (black dashed line) will be trimmed so that the keratinized gingiva can grow toward the abutment (arrow).
