This milled post and core is made of extremely strong 6AL4V
Titanium alloy. It is the intermediate fixation part between
the osseointegrated implant and the crown prosthesis. The
patented design allows the laboratory to compensate for implant
angles of up to 20 degrees. It is easily altered by the dentist
or laboratory as dictated by the implant position in the mouth
site to allow for seating, draw and fixation of the prosthesis.
The male octaganal stem beneath the seating base has a tapered end
and cement holding rings.
Unlike
other implants systems, the post and core is cemented into
the implant fixture and the crown is cemented on top of the
post and core. This makes restoration of the implant as simple
as conventional crown and bridge work.
This
piece is sent to the lab along with the transfer impression,
analog and Castable post and core of Delrin if the angle of
the implant is too severe for the prefabricated core alteration
(this seldom happens).
