“…In contrast, the Biologically Oriented Preparation Technique (BOPT), introduced by Loi and Di Felice (2013) , is considered less invasive, more aesthetic, and promotes a stable soft tissue profile near the prosthesis/tissue interface. Several studies support the influence of SHPT on periodontal health, while the vertical BOPT technique is considered more conservative and facilitates impression-taking due to its finish area rather than a defined finishing line, which improves marginal fit ( Patroni et al, 2010 , Poggio et al, 2012 , Schmitz et al, 2017 ). However, there is a lack of sufficient scientific evidence to fully support the BOPT technique, highlighting the need for longitudinal clinical trials ( Patroni et al, 2010 , Poggio et al, 2012 , Schmitz et al, 2017 ).…”
