S. Lewis, DMD/J. Beumer III, DDS/W. Hornburg/P. Moy, DMD
PMID: 3074050
A technique has been developed to fabricate implant-supported restorations directly to Brånemark implant fixtures, bypassing the traditional transmucosal abutment cylinders. This method provides for mproved esthetics and soft-tissue health, and also solves the frequent problem of limited interocclusal space. (INT J ORAL MAXILLOFAC IMPLANTS 1988;3:183-189.)
Key words: implant fixture, osseointegration, transmucosal abutment cylinder, UCLA abutment
