Can this implant restoration be upgraded?
Last Updated: May 23, 2017
I inherited this patient a couple of years ago, with what appears to be a Bicon implant #11. The non cemented, friction fit retention of this implant and abutment design is bothersome for the patient. Does anyone know of a solution to upgrade this to a more conventional and stable abutment?
Thank you for any responses.
