Zimmer Launches Angled Zirconia Abutment for Tapered Screw-Vent Dental Implants

Zimmer Dental Inc., a leading provider of dental oral rehabilitation products and a subsidiary of Zimmer Holdings, Inc., is pleased to announce the availability of its Zimmer Contour Angled Zirconia Abutment in the United States, Canada, Europe, Latin America, and Australia. Engineered for use with its Tapered Screw-Vent dental implants, the Zimmer Contour Angled Zirconia Abutment provides clinicians with a convenient, off-the-shelf restorative solution for immediately satisfying patients’ esthetic needs.

Delivering an exceptional combination of strength, esthetics and simplicity, the Zimmer Contour Angled Zirconia Abutment carries on the tradition of the Hex-Lock Abutment System. In addition, like the straight Contour Zirconia Abutment, the angled abutment’s innovative titanium ring provides a stable titanium-to-titanium fit with the Tapered Screw-Vent implant for added reliability.

Angled at 17-degrees, the Zimmer Contour Angled Zirconia Abutment provides a natural looking base for an all-ceramic, cement-retained crown in the esthetic zone — thereby increasing the likelihood of overall patient satisfaction. The abutment collar is contoured below the margin to create space for soft tissue without compromising strength or quality. Combined with the highly bio-compatible zirconia material, this provides an ideal esthetic result.
