Bicon Integrated Abutment Crowns™ / Polyceramic Material Fused to Metal :

Restoration of Ten Maxillary Implants with Two Three-unit Polyceramic to Metal

Fixed Bridges and Six Integrated Abutment Crowns™
This case demonstrates the restoration of ten maxillary implants with two three-unit polyceramic to metal
fixed bridges and six Integrated Abutment Crowns™ using the implant level transfer impression
technique.

4. View of non-shouldered abutments after the removal of

transitional prosthesis.

5. Non-shouldered abutment being removed by tapping on

the handle of a forceps.

6. View of implant wells and sulci prior to insertion of

impression posts.
7. White plastic 3.0mm impression post receiving mandatory
seating tap.

8. Red 2.0mm metal impression post receiving mandatory

seating tap.

9. Seated impression posts.

10. Impression material being injected around impression

posts for the making of an implant level transfer
impression.
11. View of implant wells and soft tissue sulci after the
removal of impression posts and prior to the re-insertion
of abutments for the transitional prosthesis.

12. Abutment being placed into transitional prosthesis prior to

its being re-inserted into the implant wells.

impression posts.
28. Prosthesis being inserted to orientate milled abutment into
the abutment well.

29. Initially positioned prosthesis with only anterior

abutment.

30. Initial seating of anterior abutment is achieved by tapping

on the prosthesis with a white plastic healing abutment in
a straight driver.

31. Prosthesis being removed to receive its posterior milled

abutment for orientation into the well of the implant.

32. Prosthesis with its posterior abutment is being inserted

into the well of the implant for its orientation and initial
seating.
33. Abutment being definitively seated prior to confirming fit
and cementation of three unit maxillary right prosthesis.

34. Final seating of maxillary right three-unit prosthesis.

35. A maxillary left prosthesis is being used to orientate

positioning of distal abutment into the well of its implant.

36. A maxillary left prosthesis is being used to orientate

positioning of mesial abutment into the well of its
implant.

37. Seating of maxillary left three-unit prosthesis.

38. Radiograph confirming seating of prosthesis.

39. Left lateral incisor Integrated Abutment Crown™ being

inserted.

40. Clear acrylic orientation jig facilitating the positioning of

left lateral incisor Integrated Abutment Crown™.

41. Left central Integrated Abutment Crown™ being inserted.

42. Right central Integrated Abutment Crown™ being

inserted.

43. Left molar Integrated Abutment Crown™ being inserted.
