Dental implant suprastructure, permanent, custom-made

Definition

A custom-made device intended to provide a permanent intermediate fixture level between a dental implant and the final prosthesis/restoration (e.g., bridge, single tooth, overdenture). It includes one or more structural component(s) [e.g., abutment, ball, bar, bar overlay, coping], and may be made of various materials [e.g., titanium (Ti), plastic, gold alloy]; an abutment screw(s) may be included, however the suprastructure does not represent the screw(s) in isolation. It may also be referred to as an abutment assembly or mesostructure and is manufactured for a specific patient.
