title: Implant prostheses using milled custom abutments.
abstract: A case report is presented to introduce a simple, predictable technique to restore implants in ceramometal on milled custom abutments. The new component discussed in this paper was created to fabricate prosthetic posts for cement-retained ceramometal prostheses. It is available for most major implant systems and is applicable to nearly any ceramometal implant restorative situation, with the rare exception of extremely short intraocclusal distance or extreme lingual placement or angulation of the implant fixture.
