Zirconia abutment

What are the benefits of using zirconia crowns? Are zirconia dental implants more biocompatible than titanium? Can cubic zirconia scratch? Figure 1) I have used it for many years in clinical practice with a variety of different implant brands in a variety of different clinical situations, and for the most part have had very little problems. A zirconia abutment offers an esthetic alternative to metal implant abutments.

Due to the white color of zirconia , abutments made of this material are often not as noticeable.

The bacterial adhesion, which is important in the maintaining. On the other han using single component zirconia implant superstructure , which is composed of zirconia abutment and the framework as one component, could facilitate easier handling and simplify the insertion procedure due to reduction of the components used. Dental implants are tooth root replacements, capped with a ceramic dental crown.

The crown (replacement tooth) is connected to the implant with an abutment. The BioHorizons conical, internally hexed connection features a number of unique design advantages focused on strength, durability and usability. The mating surfaces of the implant, abutment and abutment screw create a strong and durable precision fit as well as a predictable seal that isolates the inside. Using the Nobel Biocare portfolio, you can satisfy both the requirements of the clinical situation and your patients’ needs for function and esthetics.

Zirconia implants are somewhat new to the implant arena. The comprehensive range includes all the components needed t to support various restoration types, from temporary to final and single-unit to full-arch.

Both options allow a zirconia abutment to be efficiently designed and created. One reason for choosing a zirconia abutment is when a patient has a particularly thin gingival tissue or periodontal biotype. The copings match the emergence profile of the Esthetiline solution and allow for an easy fast and economical highly esthetic restoration. Esthetics Full ceramic abutment designed for highly esthetic restorations – the ideal choice in the anterior region and for patients with thin gingiva.

Patient-specific emergence profile supports optimal esthetic outcome. No thermal process (sintering) or finishing takes place after the final shaping of the external and internal implant geometry. This manufacturing method enables a high level of dimensional precision and accuracy. An implant for an upper front tooth where the gum may be thin and the titanium would show through.

White zirconia abutment ) The space between your upper and lower teeth is really small and the implant need to be held by a screw instead of by cement. Multiple or full mouth bridged dental implants. I had tried to stain the bright white abutment “suggested by my rep”, but some zirconia abutments have a chemical bond that will be damaged by the high oven temps. At Dental Science LLC, aesthetics and quality are our top priority. Contact us for more information.

FDA Cleared Titanium Base InterfacesOur Hybrid Abutments come packaged with a FDA Approved Titanium Base Interfaces. Because zirconia abutments are of all-ceramic composition, there is no titanium to show through the soft tissue or leave a dark central shadow in the crown. The material that seems to situated at the top of the ladder at this time is the titanium abutments vs. This should not come as a surprise, as the choice of using a zirconia abutment will usually be done when the dental implant is significantly lower than the gingival tissues and there is a potential that the abutment will extend.

Atlantis CustomBase solution, consist of an Atlantis Abutment and a Atlantis Crown.

Milled from solid titanium alloy blanks, titanium Alloy 6Al-4V (Grade 5) Milled from solid zirconia blanks. Available in five shades, including white and translucent white. This concern is most important to patients who need dental implants on their front teeth.

The research to date has been inconclusive as to whether one design is less prone to breakage than the other.
