What is an Implant Abutment?
Implant Abutment is the connecting piece between the titanium implant placed in the jawbone and the dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, or denture. Its primary function is to securely anchor the dental prosthesis to the implant.
Genuine Implant Abutments
When opting for a genuine implant abutment, you receive a specially designed piece that perfectly fits the position and shape of the implant, ensuring optimal performance and durability. This enhances the stability and longevity of the dental prosthesis.
Option Abutment Zirconia
Option Abutment Zirconia is an abutment made from zirconia, a biocompatible material known for its superior aesthetics and compatibility with the human body. Here are its main benefits:
- Gingival Compatibility: Zirconia abutments integrate well with the gums, allowing the gum tissue to grow around the abutment without leaving gaps that can trap food. This not only improves aesthetics but also hygiene, reducing the risk of infection.
- No Allergic Reactions: Zirconia is a material that does not cause allergic reactions, making it a safe option for all patients.
- High Bacterial Resistance: The smooth surface of zirconia abutments helps prevent bacterial buildup, maintaining better gum health.
- Natural Look: The white color of zirconia blends seamlessly with natural teeth, providing a more natural and pleasing appearance.
Additional Services:
Please note that choosing zirconia abutments involves additional costs compared to standard abutments included with the genuine implant. This is due to the higher material costs and the complex fabrication process of zirconia abutments. However, the benefits they provide in terms of aesthetics and hygiene make them a worthwhile investment.
