The ceramic abutment represents a 2-part abutment and consists of a titanium base and a zirconium oxide sleeve. Zirconium oxide distinguishes itself by an extremely high strength and hardness.
The titanium base is equipped with the CAMLOG® Tube-in-Tube™ Connection and thus ensures a high precision fit to the implant.
The zirconium oxide sleeve can be individually ground and used as a mesostructure for the definitive crown or bridge restoration or as a primary component for the telescopic crown technique. The zirconium oxide sleeve can directly veneered with appropriate ceramic materials to fabricate an all-ceramic crown. Only after processing or veneering is the sleeve bonded or cemented definitively to the screwed titanium base. Thus, the titanium base is not exposed to any thermal influences.
Due to the design of the titanium base, the abutment screw head is seated in the metal abutment of the base. Mechanical tension in the area of the zirconium oxide sleeve are thereby avoided.
