3Shape's Dental System is now able to design two-piece customized abutments using Dentsply Friadent premanufactured titanium bases.
3Shape has integrated an original Dentsply Friadent library within its Dental System software supporting Friadent's Ankylos and XiVE implant systems.
The new library enables dental technicians to use 3Shape Abutment Designer to model two-piece abutments using a premanufactured titanium base with a customized zirconia abutment top. To manufacture the designed restoration, the original titanium base must be obtained from Friadent; the customized zirconia part can be milled locally in the lab or milling center.
