  • Title: The use of a coded healing abutment as an impression coping to design and mill an individualized anatomic abutment: a clinical report.
    Author: Telleman G, Raghoebar GM, Vissink A, Meijer HJ.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 2011 May; 105(5):282-5. PubMed ID: 21530751.
    Abstract:
    A coded implant healing abutment makes an impression at the implant level no longer necessary. An impression is made of the healing abutment, which is placed onto the implant directly after implant placement. The codes embedded in the occlusal surface of the healing abutment provide essential information for the computer software to place the implant analog in the definitive cast and to design and mill the definitive abutment.
