retains a prosthesis or implant super
structure
TYPES
Depending upon retention

Depending upon angulation
• Straight abutment
• Angled abutment
www.indiandentalacademy.com
4. Depending upon design

– Ceraone abutment
– Ceradapt abutment
– UCLA abutment
– Noble bio care abutment
– Estheticone abutment
– Mirus cone abutment
– Noble pharma single tooth abutment
– Branemark system angulated abutment
– Astra abutment
www.indiandentalacademy.com
5. Cement retained abutments
• Better passivity
• Easier to obtain esthetics
• Fewer porcelain fractures – due to occlusal surface
integrity
• Less fatigue
• Manipulation in posterior region is easier with cement
• Loosen less often compared to that of screws
• Occlusal surfaces remain intact as there are no screw holes
– better axial loading
www.indiandentalacademy.com
6. Disadvantages
• Difficult to retrieve unless soft cements are used
• Abutments sometimes must be prepared
intraorally
• Gingival retraction may be needed
• When permanent cements are used evaluation and
maintainence of implants is difficult
• Increase in the momentum of force
www.indiandentalacademy.com
7. Types of abutment for cement
retention
1.Single unit or one piece abutment
2 .Two piece abutment
1.Single unit or one piece abutment
- does not engage anti rotational hex
but fits flush with the implant
platform
2 . Two piece abutment
- has one component to engage anti
rotational hex of implant body and
other component to fixate the
abutment and implant body together
www.indiandentalacademy.com
8. Screw retained abutments
•
•
•
•
Low profile of retention
Less momentum of force
No risk of cement in the sulcus
Easily retrievable
Disadvantages
• Loosening of the screws
• Difficult to obtain passivity
• Difficult to obtain esthetics
• Greater chances of porcelain fracture
• Access in posterior regions difficult – risk of aspiration
www.indiandentalacademy.com
9. Factors that affect screw connection
1. misfit
2. poor abutment screw tightening
3. excessive occlusal loading
4. settling of screws or abutment
5. inadequate screw design
Misfit has been reported to be as high as 66
micrometer between implant and abutment in
vertical direction , 10 degrees in rotational
dimension and 99 micrometer in horizontal
dimension
Guidelines usually recommend the screw to be
tightened by 50 – 70 % of yield strength
www.indiandentalacademy.com
10. Abutment for attachment
• Uses an attachment device to retain a removable prosthesis
• Includes
Mesostructure bars – continuous and non continuous
Super structure attachments – magnets , custom clips , hader clips
of plastic or gold , dolder clips , ceka attachments , zest , zag anchors
, octalinks , o rings , ERA attachments , pin locks and lew
attachments
www.indiandentalacademy.com
12. STRAIGHT ABUTMENT
-Indicated for replacing
single tooth for large prosthesis
upto full arch, implant borne
reconstructions
- used only when emergence
profile are parallel
- if abutments are not parallel
– can be prepared by
• Direct method
• Indirect method
www.indiandentalacademy.com
13. ANGLED ABUTMENT
-available in angulations from 10-30
degrees
-improved esthetics
-To correct path of insertion
-Increase in angle – increase risk of
fracture
-placed as deeply as possible with
most favourable axis orientation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
14. • ABUTMENT DESIGNS
FLAT TOPPED ABUTMENT
-used to support bars for
overdentures/ fixed detachable hybrid
prosthesis
-Donot engage antirotational
component
-advantage – simplicity
- disadvantage - does not have
counter rotational forces- unsuitable for
single tooth replacement
-straight emergence profileunesthetic in anterior maxilla
www.indiandentalacademy.com
15. TAPERED SHOULDERED ABUTMENT
-indicated in – bars to overdentures, hybrid overdentures,
single tooth replacement
-tapered design-resistance to lateral forces
-lower profile abutment collars- subgingival margin –
esthetic
-tapered shoulder- angled at 9-15 degree
www.indiandentalacademy.com
16. DIRECT GOLD COPING
-coping bypass abutment entirely
-consists of two parts- coping and screw
-porcelain is baked directly on to coping – results in
crown which attaches directly to implant body
-coping engages antirotational component of
implant
Indications
o Single tooth restorations that don’t require alteration of
angulation
o Limited interocclusal space
o Minimal soft tissue thickness
o Where subgingival margins are required
www.indiandentalacademy.com
17. Antirotational features of abutments
External hex
o Most widely available
o Found on top of abutments
o Hexagonal geometry
Internal hex
o Provides more precise implant
abutment interface
o Disadvantage – screw loosening
o Seats the abutment into hexagonal
depression
www.indiandentalacademy.com
18. SPLINE ATTACHMENT
Splines are fin to groove anti rotational design
Consist of six external components called tines which
protrude 1mm from implant and are matched to a female
embedded in a abutment base
www.indiandentalacademy.com
19. MORSE TAPER ATTACHMENT
-Consist of 1 piece abutment post with 5 degree taper
-resist rotation and even removal
-also referred to as cold welded design
www.indiandentalacademy.com
20. Guidelines for abutment selection
• Depth of soft tissue
vertical height from implant
head to the gingival margin
Measured with periodontal
measuring probe
labial margin of abutment is
atleast 1mm subgingival
Marked discrepancy between
gingival heights around the
margin – prepable abutment is
indicated
Diameter close to that of
cervical margin of tooth
www.indiandentalacademy.com
21. • Emergence profile
Need atleast 3mm of vertical space from implant head to
gingival margin
Allows gradual transition from implant head
www.indiandentalacademy.com
22. • Orientation
Ideally implant is placed close to the long axis of missing
tooth (thro incisal tip or just palatally)
Small degree of labial angulation – easily accomodated
with standared abutments
If more labial angulation needed – use of standard
abutment leads to
1. Excessively contoured labial surface
2. Porcelain surface too thin to mask metal structure
Better results achieved with prepable / fully customised
abutment
www.indiandentalacademy.com
23. • Interocclusal space
Space from implant head to opposing tooth
Vertical space of 6-7 mm – standard abutment
5mm of space – prepable abutment
Less than 5mm of space – vertical dimension of occlusion
increased, deeper implant placement
• Special esthetic requirements
Angulated abutments – for esthetics and biomechanical
reasons
www.indiandentalacademy.com
24. ABUTMENT RETENTION
The retention of a fixed cemented
restoration – resist removal of the retainer
along the path of insertion
Resistance – opposes movement of the
abutment under occlusal loads and prevents
removal of restoration by forces in apical
and oblique direction
www.indiandentalacademy.com
25. The tenets of retention and resistance include
• Abutment taper
– Retention of a crown decreases as the taper is
increased from 6-25 degrees
– Ideal taper was recommended to be within 2-5
degrees of parallelism of path of insertion
– Parallelism of axial walls has been recognized to
be single most factor for retention
– Eames et al – found that clinically acceptable
preparations present a taper of 20 degrees
www.indiandentalacademy.com
26. Abutment surface area
There is linear increase in retention as the
diameter increase for preparation with identical
height
Diameter of an implant abutment for cement
retention is often less than 5mm which is
comparable to prepared lateral incisor – so
decrease in surface area results in poorer
retention than most natural abutment
www.indiandentalacademy.com
27. Abutment height
A tall preparation offers greater
retention than a short abutment
Increase in height – increases
surface area , increased
resistance to lateral forces
Height of the abutment must be
greater than the arc formed by
the crown rotating about a
fulcrum at the margin of the
opposite side of the restoration
www.indiandentalacademy.com
28. Abutment surface roughness
Surface roughness increases the retention of a restoration by
creating micro retentive irregularities into which the luting agent
projects
Surface roughness retention is dependent upon the type of burs
along with the type and thickness of luting agents
Large size cross cut fissure bur – reduce height and gross
reduction of metal abutment post
Coarse diamond – increase amount and depth of microscopic
scratches on the surface to more than 40 micro meter
Internal aspect of the casting should be air abraded with 50 micro
meter alumina to enhance retention by 64%
www.indiandentalacademy.com
29. STERI OSS ABUTMENT

to implant after engaging the
external hex
