  • In-Lab Designed Titanium Abutment
  • In-Lab Designed Hybrid (Titanium Interface + Zirconia) Abutment​​

Available in Nobel Replace, Nobel Active, Zimmer, Straumann, Hiossen, Astra Tech, Biomet 3i, Biohorizon, Branemark

Based on the occlusal clearance, we use a 3mm, 4mm, or 5mm Ti interface for the hybrid cases. The longer the size of the interface is, the stronger cement bonding between interface and abutment attains.

Dental implants are stronger and more durable than their restorative counterparts (bridges and dentures). Implants offer a permanent solution to tooth loss. Additionally, implants may be used in conjunction with other restorative procedures for maximum effectiveness. For example, a single implant can serve to support a crown replacing a single missing tooth. Implants can also be used to support a dental bridge for the replacement of multiple missing teeth. Implants can be used with dentures to increase stability and reduce gum tissue irritation.

Dental implants are effective, natural-looking replacements for missing teeth. They are an exciting option that has dramatically enhanced the lives of millions of people. Our experience involves the fabrication of full fixed restorations, over-dentures, bridges, and single-tooth replacements.

Dental implants are provided by a team approach that involves a surgical specialist, a restorative dentist, and our dental laboratory – Wand Dental Lab.
