Basic information on the SURGICAL PROCEDURE - Straumann

Temporary restoration
healing caps and protective caps can be used throughout the entire healing process.
however, if an implant-borne temporary is demanded for functional or esthetic
reasons and for optimal shaping of the gingiva, the straumann ® Dental implant
system offers various restoration options.
Temporary restoration with implant-borne total dentures
if restoration with an implant-borne total denture is planned (bar, retentive anchor,
steco ® titanmagnetics ® , Locator ® ), the existing prosthesis can be used as a
temporary denture. in this case, the implants are provided with an appropriate closure
screw during the healing phase.
in order to avoid premature loading, the existing denture must be hollowed
adequately in the region of the placed implants. retentive anchors should be
screwed into the implants and loaded only at the conclusion of the healing period.
Temporary restoration options for single crown and bridge restorations
for all implant types and shoulder diameters, there are prefabricated products in each
prosthetic system for fabricating temporary single crowns or bridges. temporary
restorations should be so designed that the implants are not loaded functionally.
you will find detailed <strong>information</strong> on working with the various prosthetic
components in the brochures “crown and bridge restorations with the synocta ®
prosthetic system“, art. no. 152.255, “crown and bridge restoration with the
solid abutment system“, art. no. 152.254.
