Zimmer Dental is now offering the Zimmer angled tapered abutment, designed to enable clinicians to place implants off-axis and choose from multiple surgical protocols, including immediate load, screw-retained restorations.
Available in 15° and 30° angle configurations, the Zimmer angled tapered abutment promotes angulation correction for off-axis implant placement, repositioning the restorative platform to facilitate insertion of the prosthesis. The abutment's 1.2-mm low-profile cone is designed for use in cases with limited interocclusal space, while the cone's 15° taper allows for additional angulation correction.
The abutment's multiple cuff heights enable the clinician to select the size that best meets the patients' soft-tissue measurements, according to the company.
It is compatible with Zimmer's existing restorative components and its tapered screw-vent implant system.
