Lecture:
Abutment Selection for Implant Restorations
Selecting the appropriate abutments for implant restorations can be a dealbreaker for
successful implant prosthesis rehabilitation. Often, many dentists delegate this duty
to the dental technicians to select the appropriate abutments. While this is all and
good for straightforward cases, problems arise in more clinically complex situations
when incorrectly chosen abutments are used for the restorations. This lecture will
describe the various abutments available and discuss the considerations for correct
abutment selection in certain clinical situations. Proper selection of abutments can
help to reduce the risks of prosthetic and possibly biological implant complications,
thus ensuring longevity of our implant restorations.
