Abstract
|
|
|
|
An overall reduction in the horizontal and vertical dimensions occurs following tooth extraction and the resorption of the buccal part of the ridge is more pronounced than the lingual part. Thus, the resulting morphology of the healed alveolar ridge is often presenting with a discrepancy in bone height between the buccal and lingual aspects of the ridge. The implant with a sloped marginal configuration that is designed to match the sloped contour of the alveolar ridge provides the opportunity to maintain the buccal-lingual bone discrepancy and soft tissue around the implant. This paper introduces the OsseoSpeed TX Profile implants with sloped marginal configuration and explains the characteristics and clinical meanings of those implants.
