The EsthetiCone abutment: three-year results of a prospective multicenter investigation.

The EsthetiCone abutment, designed for subgingival restorative margins, makes it possible to achieve ideal esthetics, function, and predictability. This study included 200 EsthetiCone abutments placed in 50 partial or complete edentulous patients participating in a multicenter study performed in Europe and the United States. The patients were followed for 3 years and the marginal bone level of the implants was determined from intra-oral radiographs.

A 5-year multicenter study on implant-supported single crown restorations.

In this multicenter prospective study, the results achieved with the use of Brånemark implants for single tooth replacement were evaluated. The overall cumulative success rate was 95.9% for implants and 91.

Achieving ideal esthetics in osseointegrated prostheses. 1. Multiple units.

This article describes two new abutments that are intended to enhance the esthetics and function of the implant prosthesis while keeping it in harmony with the periodontium. Part 1 discusses the EsthetiCone, designed for use with multiple-unit restorations, which allows subgingival placement of porcelain for maximal esthetics. Unlike traditional abutments, the EsthetiCone is placed 4 to 6 weeks after the fixture is uncovered.

Achieving ideal esthetics in osseointegrated prostheses. Part II. The single unit.

There are several advantages to the CeraOne single-tooth abutment. It seats directly onto the fixture, forming a nonrotating joint. A new type of gold alloy screw that can be tightened to 32 N/cm is used.
