NeoLink - The concept
The Neoss Dental Implant System abutments have been designed to facilitate the fabrication of custom designed screw retained Gold, Titanium and Ceramic abutments or frameworks having a precision machined fit which are utilised in the production of cement or screw retained prothesis.
Neoss abutments offer an efficient high accuracy prosthetic solution, whilst ensuring optimum quality control and offering an economical solution with numerous technical benefits.
The set of preformed plastic anatomical copings, part of the Esthetiline solution, provide a complete range of abutment designs for different teeth, emergence profiles, heights and angulations.
There are a number of restorative options:
- CAD/CAM abutments/frameworks cemented or bonded to Titanium NeoLinks™. Bonding of CAD/CAM designed copings or frameworks may be done ‘prior to’ or ‘after’ application of the porcelain/restorative material.
- Invest and cast directly onto the Gold NeoLink™ with a suitable alloy.
- Remove the NeoLink™ from the waxed coping/framework and cast the anatomical coping/ framework (in a desired alloy) without the NeoLink™.
Three types of restorations can be produced; a restoration cemented onto custom abutments, a framework retained directly on the head of the implant fixture by abutment screws or an angulated screw retained solution using the Access abutment.
Because the cast abutment or framework can be bonded to the precision machined NeoLink™ a true passive fit can be achieved. Inaccuracies caused in casting or porcelain firing can therefore be eliminated.
Generally connection by cementation or bonding is carried out in the laboratory after the application of the restorative material.
