Identify Implant from 20 Years Ago?
I have a patient who had an implant placed #30 about 20 years ago and he does not know what type of implant it is. I went to the whatimplantisthat.com website and am still unsure if I have found the right implant. I am going to attach a PLD to it and i need to order the correct parts. Any information or insight would be great. Thanks.

I wouldn't place anything on it, the top bridge is also failing, time to refer!

Would recommend disassemble it take pic of connector and post it then reassemble temporarily

Looks like 3.8 Steri-Oss flat top.
components can be found at Nobelbiocare or Attachments International.
