Conventional Abutment and sylbutment
The principles of
The principles of SYLBUTMENT are easily discovered around us.
In a conventional abutment, the gap between fixture and abutment may increase gradually due to repeated chewing forces. This is due to the contact between the outer surface
of the abutment and the inner taper of the fixture, which only occurs on a small surface
area due to the roughness of both the two surfaces. On the other hand, SYLBUTMENT
increases the contact surfaces by transformation to the grooves. It does not create a gap
as the transformation between the two surfaces occurs within the elastic range.
Why does loosening occur in conventional abutments?
The perfect contact of two at surfaces is only possible theoretically but practically impossible.
The perfect contact of two at surfaces is only possible
theoretically but practically impossible.
When a chewing force is applied then removed,
the gap between the two surfaces increase.
As shown in the figure above, chewing forces are experienced asymmetrically
- Implant connection by hex/non-hex composition is used according to surgery method and produced prosthesis
Usage
- conventional cement retained type abutment
- Used in revising the fixture’s path
- Used in cases when the prosthesis’ path needs to be adjusted
