Limited Crown Height

A 60-year-old man is a bruxer with severe occlusal wear (Fig.1-4).  He requests implant to replace residual roots at #30 (Fig.4).  A 5x11.5 mm implant will be placed.  The abutment length should be limited because of limited crown height.  An immediate provisional should be as low as possible.
