The design of the AURUM Base Abutment allows for easier instrument access to the abutment screw and allows for placement of the screw channel out of the esthetic region of the restoration. AURUM Base Abutments are provided with a prosthetic platform diameter of 5.5 mm, with gingival heights (in the base) of 1 mm.
AURUM Base Abutments are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) and anodized a gold color, and the SelectGrip® surface to aid in bonding retention. The design of the AURUM Base Abutments, including the titanium alloy, anodization treatment, and SelectGrip® surface is similar to that of DESS AURUM Base Abutments cleared in K240208.
**C-Base Abutments** are provided in engaging and non-engaging designs. C-Base Abutments are two-piece abutments designed to support a custom CAD-CAM zirconia superstructure on which a single-unit or multi-unit restoration may be placed. The ceramic superstructure produced through CAD-CAM is the second part of the two-piece abutment. The C-Base Abutment also may support a ceramic hybrid abutment in which the crown is included in the design of the zirconia abutment ceramic superstructure.
The C-Base Abutment prosthetic post is 4.68 mm, and the gingival height is 1 mm to 3 mm. All patient-specific custom abutment fabrication is by prescription on the order of the clinician. C-Base Abutments are made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) with anodization and a SelectGrip® surface.
C-Base Abutments also may support a ceramic hybrid abutment in which the crown is included in the design of the zirconia abutment ceramic superstructure. When used for a direct crown, C-Base abutments may be used with POMburn out sleeve an exempt laboratory component not a subject of this submission, that is available for laboratory fabrication of the prosthesis. C-Bases are not intended for angulation correction when used with a POM burn-out sleeve.
**ELLIPTIBase Abutments** are available in an engaging design. ELLIPTIBase Abutments are two-piece abutments designed to support a custom CAD-CAM zirconia superstructure on which a single-unit or multi-unit restoration may be placed. The ceramic superstructure produced through CAD-CAM is the second part of the two-piece abutment. The ELLIPTIBase Abutment also may support a ceramic hybrid abutment in which the crown is included in the design of the zirconia abutment ceramic superstructure.
Before attachment of the zirconia superstructure or crown, the ELLIPTIBase post height is 3.0 mm. When used for a single-unit restoration the ELLIPTIBase is to be used with a superstructure to create a minimum post height of 4.0 mm. ELLIPTIBase is made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) with a gold anodized surface
The design parameters for the CAD/CAM zirconia superstructures are summarized in Table 1 and Figure 1 below.
