Abstract
|
|
|
|
Conventional implant-level impression techniques required removal of healing abutments at least twice until the placement of definitive restorations. The use of coded healing abutments may simplify this procedure since they provide information necessary to design implant abutments such as implant hex position and platform diameter. This could minimize periimplant tissue irritation and reduce the laboratory time and costs when used in combination with an intraoral scanner. The aims of this article were to describe the structure, clinical availability, and limitations of the coded healing abutments and review the studies related to their use.
