The NP healing abutment is an essential auxiliary device in dental implant surgery, designed for the healing phase after implant placement. It securely holds temporary or permanent restorations in place and plays a critical role in shaping the ideal soft tissue contour for the final restoration. Available in a variety of diameters and heights, it accommodates the personalized needs of different patients. Crafted from high-quality surgical-grade titanium (Ti6Al4V ELI), the NP healing abutment demonstrates excellent biocompatibility, ensuring harmonious integration with oral tissues and laying a solid foundation for the success of the implant surgery and the patient’s long-term oral health.
Advantages of Healing Abutments in Dental Implant Surgery
Comprehensive Protection: The healing abutment acts as a protective cap over the primary part of the implant during the healing phase, effectively preventing the accumulation of plaque, food debris, and other oral particles. This significantly reduces the risk of infection, ensuring the stability and safety of the implant.
Surgical Flexibility: Oral surgeons can flexibly choose to install the healing abutment during either a one-stage or two-stage surgery, depending on the patient’s specific oral condition, aesthetic requirements, and overall treatment plan. This flexibility ensures personalized and optimized treatment, increasing the success rate of the procedure.
Shaping a Natural Gum Line: The design of the healing abutment is usually slightly wider than the implant itself, which helps shape a more natural and aesthetically pleasing gum line during the healing process.
