Deciding on Zirconia or Titanium Abutments
Choosing between a Zirconia and Titanium Abutment? Here are the main parameters for choosing an abutment for a specific case:
- Subgingival depth of the implant (at least 4 mm gingival level to occlusal)
- The distance between the gum level and the antagonist (opposing tooth)
- Occlusion
- Patient expectations
Below is a helpful chart that goes over all of the different abutment options and their uses.
