A method for creating a virtual dental model of a dental structure of a patient for a dental procedure, the method comprising: generating a virtual model of the dental structure of the patient, the virtual model including a portion associated with soft dental surfaces, a portion associated with hard dental surfaces, and an implant site; identifying a first portion of the virtual model corresponding to a portion of the soft dental surfaces around the implant site, the first portion having a first virtual surface corresponding to a surface of the soft dental surfaces; defining a second virtual surface displaced in an apical direction from the first virtual surface; defining a first lateral virtual surface that extends between at least the first virtual surface and the second virtual surface; modifying the virtual model to create: a first virtual model part having surfaces corresponding to the portion of the soft dental surfaces, the first virtual surface, the second virtual surface, and the first lateral virtual surface and a second virtual model part corresponding to at least a portion of the hard dental surfaces of the virtual model and having a third virtual surface that corresponds to the second virtual surface, at least a portion of the second virtual model part being in a coronal direction with respect to the first virtual model part; and outputting a composite model corresponding to the modified virtual model, the composite model including a first model part and a second model part, the first model part corresponding to a shape of the first virtual model part and the second model part corresponding to a shape of the second virtual model part. generating a virtual model of the dental structure of the patient, the virtual model including a portion associated with soft dental surfaces, a portion associated with hard dental surfaces, and an implant site; identifying a first portion of the virtual model corresponding to a portion of the soft dental surfaces around the implant site, the first portion having a first virtual surface corresponding to a surface of the soft dental surfaces; defining a second virtual surface displaced in an apical direction from the first virtual surface; defining a first lateral virtual surface that extends between at least the first virtual surface and the second virtual surface; modifying the virtual model to create: a first virtual model part having surfaces corresponding to the portion of the soft dental surfaces, the first virtual surface, the second virtual surface, and the first lateral virtual surface and a second virtual model part corresponding to at least a portion of the hard dental surfaces of the virtual model and having a third virtual surface that corresponds to the second virtual surface, at least a portion of the second virtual model part being in a coronal direction with respect to the first virtual model part; and a first virtual model part having surfaces corresponding to the portion of the soft dental surfaces, the first virtual surface, the second virtual surface, and the first lateral virtual surface and a second virtual model part corresponding to at least a portion of the hard dental surfaces of the virtual model and having a third virtual surface that corresponds to the second virtual surface, at least a portion of the second virtual model part being in a coronal direction with respect to the first virtual model part; and outputting a composite model corresponding to the modified virtual model, the composite model including a first model part and a second model part, the first model part corresponding to a shape of the first virtual model part and the second model part corresponding to a shape of the second virtual model part.
