MAP: the most apical point of the gingival margin at the buccal aspect of the crown; PMD: the line connecting the peak of the adjacent mesial and distal natural teeth (PMD); GML: the distance from MAP to PMD; Magnification: the length of the natural crown next to the implant supported prosthesis was recorded to correct any changes in magnification
