Healing Abutments are intended for placement onto the implant during stage II surgery. As the tissue heals, it conforms to the contours of the abutment. As the gingiva heals, the tissue adapts to the form of the healing abutment, creating permanent oral access to the implant and prepares the gingiva for the restorative phase. It is made out of 6AL-4V ELI Titanium Alloy, ASTM F136-12a. Device is supplied as a narrow platform with a 3mm cuff.
A prefabricated 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, ring], and may be made of various materials [e.g., titanium (Ti), plastic, gold alloy]. It includes devices glued to prostheses and/or devices that can be replaced during cleaning cycles. 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.
