| Abstract: | Inherent concerns for all implant systems exist. These concerns include complex restorative procedures, abutment rotational problems, marginal bone loss, and, in some cases, less than ideal cosmetic results. To overcome or reduce these problems, a new implant has been designed. The implant has been evaluated in this prospective study. Thirty-three new design implants were placed in 11 patients for an average time of 27.25 months. The new implant design proved to be easier to restore, posed no abutment rotational problems, resulted in no marginal bone loss problems (positive bone maintenance), and produced exceptional favorable cosmetic results. |
