چکیده

This article describes the intraoral preparation of healing abutments for use as prefabricated abutments for a cement-retained, implant-supported prosthesis. After the healing abutments are prepared, an impression is made with irreversible hydrocolloid, and the provisional restoration is fabricated indirectly. This technique is an easy and economical alternative for the fabrication of provisional fixed partial dentures or crowns but may be contraindicated for severely misaligned implants.

The Effect of Abutment Surface Roughness on the Retention of Implant-Supported Crowns Cemented with Provisional Luting Cement

Introduction: Surface roughness can increase the retention of castings by ridges and grooves that are microretentive. This study compared the retention of implant-supported crowns when used with 3 different surface roughness abutments and one temporary cement. Methods: Thirty solid abutments (ITI), 4 mm high, were divided into three groups randomly. In the first group, 10 abutments were roughen...

Effect of Three Types of Temporary Luting Cements and Abutment Surface Sandblasting on Retentive Strength of Implant-Supported Fixed Prostheses

Background and Aim: Achieving appropriate retention and easy retrieva bility at the same time is challenging in implant-supported fixed par tial dentures (FPDs). Researchers have always been in search of a temporary cement to improve the retentive strength. The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of three different temporary ce ments and sandblasting of the abutment surface on...

Comparison of uniaxial resistance forces of cements used with implant-supported crowns.

PURPOSE Provisional cements are commonly used to facilitate retrievability of cement-retained fixed implant restorations. While the functional life spans of these cements are unpredictable, the relative retentiveness of various permanent and provisional cements between dental alloys and titanium abutments is not well documented. The aim of this study was to compare the uniaxial resistance force...

An in vitro assessment of circumferential grooves on the retention of cement-retained implant-supported crowns.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Crowns cemented on short implant abutments may have insufficient retention. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of circumferential grooves on the retention of cemented cast copings on implant abutments. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty similarly-shaped implant abutments were divided into 4 groups (n=15): without grooves, with 1 groove, with 2 grooves,...

Cement- and screw-retained implant-supported prostheses: up to 10 years of follow-up of a new design.

PURPOSE This retrospective study investigated treatment outcomes over 10 years of a new prosthesis design in implant prosthodontics that uses a combined cement- and screw-retained principle. MATERIALS AND METHODS The clinical data of 78 implant-supported prostheses were examined. Each prosthesis incorporated at least 1 screw-retained element and 1 or more cement-retained telescopic units. One...
