The Bicon Short Implant gives many more clinicians the confidence to place implants in the posterior mandible and maxilla.
PFM restorations are fabricated most of the time on the non-shouldered abutments.
The IAC is a prosthetic implant restoration fabricated with a prepared titanium abutment to which an opaque polyceramic material is bonded under vacuum at 125˚C and subsequent incremental layers of tooth colored polyceramic material is bonded with a light curing process. This cementless and screwless restoration provides for 360˚ of aesthetic subgingival margin placement with a material that has the same bio-mechanical properties as a natural tooth.
For the patient who demands a high level of aesthetics, an all ceramic crown restoration is possible with the use of the stealth shouldered abutment and aluminum oxide sleeve. The final crown may be cemented conventionally or extra-orally.
The Bicon implant allows clinicians to offer not only single tooth restorations but also allows for the flexibility of restoring dentition with bridges.
The Bicon System has several options for the implant retained denture. The most common restoration involves the use of the o-ring abutment and corresponding plastic or titanium housing that is cured into the denture.
Most of the full arch restoration seen in the attached list will be individual units. While this is the preferred method of treatment for many clinicians, bridges may also be utilized.
The congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisor can be a challenging restoration with many implant systems. Yet the design of the Bicon implant allows for placement of the implant when there is minimal space. Since you create the emergence with the abutment, narrower abutments may be used in order to achieve the gingivally aesthetic result necessary for the maxillary anterior.
When an upper posterior tooth is lost, the floor of the maxillary sinus drops down into the space formerly occupied by the root of the lost tooth. In order to place an implant, it is often necessary to put the sinus floor back up to where it originally was by adding a synthetic bone substitute.
After the loss of a tooth, the bone formerly around the tooth is resorbed — often leaving a very narrow ridge of bone. In order to place an implant, the ridge of bone is split as though it were a piece of corrugated cardboard being expanded to provide a wider space between each side.
Immediate stabilization and function is a predictable chairside treatment option. With the use of the stealth shouldered abutments and corresponding acrylic sleeves, patients can leave your office on the day of implant placement with a functioning and aesthetic transitional prosthesis. The one criterion and key to success of this treatment is the ability to prosthetically immobilize the implant with the transitional restoration.
Bicon’s Transitional Implant System is intended to be used for the placement into bone as a transmucosal or transcutaneous screw to which a transitional or temporary prosthesis may be attached. The Bicon Transitional Implant System is screwed into the prepared osteotomy manually or by rotary means. Manual preparation is accomplished by utilizing the hand driver and rotary preparation is accomplished by utilizing the appropriate latch-end driver.
The Polyceramic Material Fused to Metal restoration is comparable to a PFM restoration. The opaque polyceramic material is bonded under vacuum at 125˚C and subsequent incremental layers of tooth colored polyceramic material is bonded with a light curing process.
The telescopic restoration helps those patients that have experienced significant bone loss and do not want to undergo extensive bone grafting procedures. The telescopic restoration is an implant supported removable prosthesis with a metal framework that connects to non-shouldered abutments that have been milled by the laboratory technician.
