Abstract
The aim of this work is to describe a case of severe disparallelism between two implants supporting
a cement‑retained bridge, placed in the maxilla, employing two custom‑angled abutments. Fractured
abutment screw and fractured abutment involved two implant restorations in the maxilla. Once
prosthetic components have been removed, a new prosthetic rehabilitation has been planned. The
divergence between the implants was measured, obtaining an angle of divergence of 39°. Then, two
custom‑angled titanium abutments and two metal‑ceramic splinted crowns were realized.
