Introduction
The PEEK (polyether ether ketone) temporary
abutment was designed for use in
esthetic immediate restorations. It can
also be used for long-term provisionals
(max. 6 months).
The benefits of immediate implantation
with an esthetic, non-functional immediate
restoration consist in preservation of
the structures of the periodontal or periimplant
tissue in esthetically critical
zones.
Once an adequate healing (osseointegration)
period for the implant has elapsed
and the peri-implant soft tissue has
matured, a new impression for the final
restoration can be taken.

System Components
The temporary abutment (PEEK) has a
height of 12.0 mm and is available in
diameters 3.8 mm – 6.0 mm. The abutment
screw must be hand-tightened
only, using the screwdriver.
An abutment screw is supplied along
with the abutment.
Preparing the Temporary Abutment
Insert the abutment into the implant and
rotate until the cams engage with the
grooves. Then insert the abutment screw
and hand-tighten it. Mark the vestibular
midpoint and the preparation margins
on the abutment following the gingival
line.
