Healing abutments for dental implants
Components used during healing and preparation for implant restoration. A healing abutment is not a definitive crown or a complete replacement tooth.
About Service
Preparation after implant placement depends on the treatment approach. A healing component may be placed initially or after a separate exposure procedure for an implant that healed beneath the gum.
The available items include MegaGen and Straumann healing abutments. The clinician selects a compatible component and determines when to use it.
What the treatment or procedure involves
- Checking the implant system and tissue condition.
- Selecting the component and treatment stage.
- Review before restoration.
Important considerations
- A separate exposure procedure, when required, carries minor surgical risks.
- Discomfort or a loose component requires assessment; do not attempt to tighten it yourself.
