What is it indicated for?

Nobel Biocare's Procera Copings and Ponttic are indicated for use as core structures of an artificial prosthesis, i.e. a three-unit bridge, for partially edentulous patients in the need of prosthetic oral reconstruction in order to restore chewing function.

The Pontic is indicated as the core structure of the center unit and the Copings are indicated as the core structures of the two side crowns, thereby forming the three-unit bridge.

The Copings are also indicated for use as single crowns that will be cemented to a natural or artificial tooth abutment in the treatment of partially edentulous patients in order to restore chewing function.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
