What is it indicated for?

Abutments are intended to be placed into dental implants to provide support for prosthetic reconstructions such as crowns or bridges. The ITI Esthetic abutments are indicated for cemented restorations in esthetic areas of the mouth. The abutment can be used to restore crowns for single tooth replacements and bridges for multiple tooth restorations.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
