UCLA Abutments
Cement-Retained Restorations
The UCLA Abutment is a castable abutment offered with a machined gold alloy base or in a fully castable version.
- It may be used for single or multi-unit screw or cement-retained restorations.
- It may correct angles up to 30 degrees when cast as a custom abutment.
* UCLA Gold Hexed Abutments do not include the screw. The final Gold-Tite Screw (IUNIHG) or the Titanium Screw (IUNIHT) must be ordered separately.
Clinical Challenges
Implant-Abutment Seal Strength with the Gold-Tite Screw
- Peri-implant Mucositis - The prevalence of peri-mucositis has been reported as high as 80% of all dental patients.1
- Peri-implantitis - The prevalence of implants experiencing peri-implantitis has been reported in excess of 12%.2,3
- Crestal Bone Loss - Average implant crestal bone remodeling can exceed 1.5 mm following the first year of function, leading to compromised aesthetics.3
Considerations:
- Single and multiple-unit cement-retained restorations
- Laboratory fabricated custom abutments
- Minimum interarch space of 6mm
- For aesthetic restorations when tissue is limited
- Maximum angulation correction of 30°
- Material: Machined Gold Alloy Cylinder With Plastic Unitube
