BioHorizons Simple Solutions - Predictable restorations in a snap.

Simple Solution protocols on BioHorizons Internal and Tapered Implants allow clinicians to provide their patients with cement-retained restorations in a minimal number of office visits. The pre-tapered abutments are designed to be restored without additional modification, and come in heights of 4.0mm and 5.5mm. The transmucosal collar portion is available in heights of 0.8mm, 1.8mm and 2.8mm to accommodate variable tissue thickness.

After the impression has been made, patients can wear a tooth-colored Healing Cap over the abutment while the laboratory fabricates the final prosthesis. Acrylic can be added to the Healing Cap as needed to help create a more natural provisional.

Crown margins finish on the beveled shoulder of Internal Simple Solutions Abutments (Fig. A). This means collar height selection (0.8mm / 1.8mm / 2.8mm) will determine the crown margin position. This differs from other cement-retained restorations where the crown margin typically finishes on an abutment margin (Fig. B). In those cases, the abutment is selected or modified in the laboratory to position the margin as desired.

Snap Impression Cap is placed on seated Simple Solutions Abutment.

PEEK Healing Cap may be used to provisionalize the patient while final prosthesis is fabricated.

Final prosthesis is delivered to patient. Standard PFM or CAD/CAM all-ceramic methods may be employed in the fabrication.
