DO NOT PUBLISH Abutments

A healing abutment promotes healthy bone and tissue development around an implant in preparation for the final abutment and crown. Dense soft-tissue attachment to the surface of an abutment also acts as a protective seal against bacterial irritation and inflammation. The transgingival healing encourages soft tissue stability and the formation of an ideal emergence profile. Additionally, the healing abutment prevents soft-tissue from growing over the implant fixture, eliminating the need for a second surgery.

These positive outcomes create a stable peri-implant environment, resulting in a restoration with better function and esthetics. Healing abutments are pre-fabricated or patient-specific, organized by diameter, height, and shape to best fit the final restoration goals.

Dentsply Sirona astutely champions restoration products that support a natural, esthetic emergence profile. Healthy tissue and bone growth, long-term function, and predictable clinical results are essential factors in the success of an implant treatment. When healing abutments are a required part of the clinical case, Dentsply Sirona offers well-performing options for every major implant system.

Multi-unit abutments can correct variations in implant angulation and height to produce a positive, uniform seat for rehabilitative or partially edentulous arches. A predictable, passive fit reduces stress on the framework, implants, and surrounding bone. Multi-unit abutments also provide easy access for future maintenance of the screw-retained restoration. This precision fit is fundamental to the long-term survival of the prosthesis.

Dentsply Sirona understands the importance of predictable clinical success when incorporating an MUA treatment concept. Even the most minimal disparity in the draw of the implant interface access can cause restorative challenges. The Implant Systems that incorporate this approach all share common design elements for repeatable, clinical success:

• Angled Multi-Unit Abutments: Accommodate divergence between abutments
• Variable Collar Heights: Accommodate mucosal tissue thickness and interocclusal space
• Easy Handling: Pre-mounted holder for easy abutment seating
• CAD/CAM Abutments: Flexibility in therapy and design

With our patented virtual Atlantis Design Software, each custom implant abutment is individually designed. These are milled to a precise position, placing the margins in a favorable location relative to the gingival crest. You and your patient will benefit from this by:

• Taking less time for crown delivery
• Making cement cleanup easier
• Enhancing esthetics of the final restoration

Incorporating Atlantis custom fabricated abutments into your dental practice and dental laboratory provides peace of mind when placing implants in the all-important esthetic zone. Our custom abutments deliver reduced chair time and cost-effective treatments to make implants an enjoyable and profitable part of your dental practice.

Azento offers a streamlined implant treatment for single-tooth restorations that is custom-designed for each patient. You will discover that it is everything you need for an implant procedure.
