Summary
Base bonding customized zirconium abutments show acceptable clinical application in implant prostheses. Most cases achieved successful application with high patient and dentist satisfaction regarding esthetics.
Area of Science:
- Dental Implantology
- Biomaterials Science
- Prosthodontics
Background:
- Customized abutments are crucial for successful dental implant restorations.
- Zirconium offers favorable biocompatibility and esthetic properties for abutment fabrication.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess the clinical efficacy and outcomes of base bonding customized zirconium abutments.
- To evaluate patient and clinician satisfaction with esthetic results.
Main Methods:
- A retrospective study involving 141 base bonding customized zirconium abutments in 114 implant-supported cases.
- Follow-up period ranged from 3 months to 2 years to monitor clinical performance.
Main Results:
- 140 out of 141 abutments (99.3%) were successfully applied to implant prostheses on the first attempt.
- One abutment experienced partial zirconia exfoliation during the observation period.
- High levels of satisfaction were reported by both patients and dentists regarding the esthetic outcomes.
Conclusions:
- Base bonding customized zirconium abutments demonstrate acceptable clinical performance.
- The material and technique show promise for esthetic and functional dental implant restorations.
