® ® FRIADENT CERCON Implant Abutments Dr. Peter Gehrke, Michael Stock 2004 Zirconium Oxide Implant Abutments: A new era in tensile strength, light dynamics and biocompatibility Summary Today, custom implant abutments fabricated from titanium are considered a standard treatment option for implant- supported restorations. Improved materials, coupled with the increased demand by clinicians and patients for highly esthetic results, have contributed significantly to the development of a new generation of ceramic abutments. Full- ® ® ceramic FRIADENT CERCON abuments, fabricated from yttrium stabilized – zirconium oxide (Y-TZP), have been noted for their tooth-analog color, high loading strength, tissue tolerability and intra-sulcular design enhancement. The phenomenon of transformation toughening of zirconium oxide results in extremely high component stability, extraordinary bending and tensile strength, fracture and chemical resistance. The above noted properties allow zirconium oxide to ”self-repair” micro-crack initiation by stopping crack propagation. To be a viable treatment choice ceramic restorations must cosmetically and functionally equal that of the natural dentition. The esthetic characterization of CERCON® implant abutments and its ceramic restorations implies the phenomenon of reflection and transmission of light. ® ® FRIADENT CERCON abutments offer: ■ Maximum mechanical stability ■ Outstanding biocompatibility ■ Accelerated and dense peri-implant soft tissue attachment ■ Reduced plaque adhesion ■ Light dynamic qualities comparable to natural teeth Introduction The physiologic performance of intact ceramic implant The outst
