PMID: 2202668
Where fixture placement and inclination had not been optimal from a restorative perspective, angulated abutments were used to overcome compromised esthetic and functional results in situations of complicated anatomy. The angulated abutment is a treatment adjunct that provides flexibility for ensuring successful treatment when a variety of reconstruction problems are confronted. ( INT J ORAL MAXILLOFAC IMPLANTS 1990;5:39-45.)
Key words: angulated abutments, complicated anatomy, malaligned implants
