Use of Ceramic Abutments

چکیده
Implant restoration in the esthetic zone can present many challenges for the clinician. Patient and clinician demands for implant restorations with better esthetics have led to the introduction of ceramic abutments. With this introduction, questions have arisen regarding the properties of ceramic materials and their use in the fabrication of implant abutments. This issue of Report 011 Prosthodontics discusses the use of ceramic abutments.

Effect of Cast Rectifiers on the Marginal Fit of Ucla Abutments
OBJECTIVES This study assessed the effect of cast rectifiers on the marginal misfit of cast UCLA abutments compared to premachined UCLA abutments. The influence of casting and porcelain baking on the marginal misfit of these components was also investigated. METHODS Two groups were analyzed: test group - 10 cast UCLA abutments, finished with cast rectifier and submitted to ceramic application...

OBJECTIVES The objective of this systematic review was to assess the 5-year survival rates and incidences of complications associated with ceramic abutments and to compare them with those of metal abutments. METHODS An electronic Medline search complemented by manual searching was conducted to identify randomized-controlled clinical trials, and prospective and retrospective studies providing ...
متن کاملSystematic review of the survival rate and incidence of biologic, technical, and esthetic complications of single implant abutments supporting fixed prostheses.
PURPOSE To assess the 5-year survival rate and number of technical, biologic, and esthetic complications involving implant abutments. MATERIALS AND METHODS Electronic (Medline) and hand searches were performed to assess studies on metal and ceramic implant abutments. Relevant data from a previous review were included. Two reviewers independently extracted the data. Failure and complication ra...
متن کاملScreening of fixed prosthodontic dentures after five years of use in relation to material and construction.
The aim of this study was to screen patients with fixed prosthodontic appliances that were in oral cavity for a period of 5 years or more and to assess clinically and radiologically root caries, gingival recession, pocket formation, alveolar ridge resorption, as well as gingival (GI) and plaque index (PI). The aim also was to find out the differences between materials and constructions, between...
متن کاملAll-ceramic single-tooth implant reconstructions using modified zirconia abutments: a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial of the effect of pink veneering ceramic on the esthetic outcomes.
The aim of this study was to test whether veneering of the submucosal part of zirconia abutments using pink veneering ceramic positively influences the color of the peri-implant mucosa. Single-tooth implants were restored with either white zirconia abutments (control group) or pink-veneered zirconia abutments and all-ceramic crowns. Esthetic outcome measurements included a spectrophotometric ev...
