The Atlantis Abutment is intended for use with an endosseous implant to support a prosthetic device in a partially or completely edentulous patient. It is intended for use to support single and multiple tooth prosthesis, in the mandible or maxilla. The prosthesis can be cemented, screw retained or friction fit to the abutment. The abutment screw is intended to secure the abutment to the endosseous implant.

The Atlantis Crown Abutment in Zirconia is intended for use with an endosseous implant to function as a substructure that also serves as the final restoration, in partially or completely edentulous patients. The prosthesis is screw retained. The abutment screw is intended to secure the crown abutment to the endosseous implant.

The Atlantis Abutment in Zirconia for Dentsply Ankylos Implant is compatible with the Dentsply Ankylos 3.5mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm and 7.0mm Implants.

The Atlantis Crown Abutment in Zirconia is intended for use with an endosseous implant to function as a substructure that also serves as the final restoration, in partially or completely edentulous patients. The prosthesis is screw retained. The abutment screw is intended to secure the crown abutment to the endosseous implant.

This device is compatible with the following manufacturers' implant systems: the Dentsply Ankylos 3.5mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm and 7.0mm Implants.

Please note: This device may be used in an early load situation, but is dependent on the specific implant system and protocol used by the dental professional.

Highly angled abutments on small diameter implants are intended for the anterior region of the mouth only.

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