Planning implants 4/5 (singles) implant bridge 7-9, single implants 12/13. Best long term temp while implants heal? Flipper vs long term lab made temp? Im also crowning 6/10/11 so i could have nice lab made temp for him to wear for 4 months?

100% long term fixed temp from lab.
I love these because you are basically previewing what the final will be, but you can still tweak it. I like acrylic, but some labs like to do zirc temps too
I would still use a flipper tho during the initial healing phases.

So for surgery day stick with just the implants. Let it heal for a little bit, then go back in and prep 6/10/11?

@jorbrown dude, I LOVE that you made an explainer video.
Are all those anterior natural teeth gonna be prepped anyway?
If so, absolutely, make a long span temporary bridge. What teeth will it connect though? And if you do this, how will you temporize the posterior edentulous Spaces?
Then after everything is healed up, you’ll take a new impression to work off of.
That is a BIG case man! Lots of moving parts and lots of thinking involved. They’re the most fun IMO
You can also do a flipper. It’s Much easier, but overall less desirable From the patients standpoint.

Or let him wear an Essix for surgery day and 1-2 weeks after?
