The management and modification of the gingival tissues around the restorations in fixed prostheses has always been the most difficult challenge for the dentist to achieve. With the vertical carving technique, the clinician and dental laboratory technician can interact with the surrounding tissue to change its shape. Vertical carving is a restorative protocol that aims to imitate dental nature since it transfers the convex anatomy of a tooth to the final prosthesis, causing the gum to adapt around the new shapes and profiles.

General objectives of the conference:

-Instruct attendees in the knowledge of the BOPT philosophy in teeth.

-Know the handling of the BOPT provisional prosthesis for optimal modeling of the surrounding gingival tissue.

Specific objectives:

-Concept and indications of the vertical preparation technique.

-Protocol of milling and preparation of the provisional.

-Modification of the gingival profile and scalloping, varying the prosthetic emergence.

-Taking of functionalized impressions and preparation of the master model.

-Clinical precautions for the use of the technique.

-Criteria for obtaining correct periodontal health and gingival stability over time.
