Abstract
This clinical report describes the management of gingival recession and gingival line asymmetry around fixed partial dentures using the biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT). By modifying the emergence profile of the restorations through the BOPT and incorporating a digital workflow, a stable and esthetic gingival margin was achieved. The report highlights the procedural steps, advantages, and limitations of this approach in the anterior maxillary region.
