Multifunctional anatomical prototypes (MAPs): Treatment of excessive gingival display due to altered passive eruption.

Developing a virtual patient by combining multiple digital data sets including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), intra-oral scans and digital photography, supports the clinician and the patient to achieve a comprehensive diagnosis and to better communicate the expected results to the patient. Furthermore, this digital treatment exercise based on anatomical and biological principles will facilitate the surgical precision and the achievement of successful outcomes, thus fulfilling the patient needs and expectations.
