This clinical technique uses a 3D printed model of a custom abutment to minimize the amount of retained cement by seating the implant crown on it before cementing intra-orally.
Preventing retained cement around implant-retained crowns is crucial for the long-term health and success of the implant. Residual subgingival cement is strongly associated with peri-mucositis and can lead to peri-implantitis. This clinical technique utilizes a 3D printed model of a custom abutment to seat the implant crown on before cementing intra-orally to extrude excess cement. The technique aims to limit the amount of retained cement at the crown-abutment margin and also takes into consideration the cement space already designed into the crown-abutment complex.
