Abstract
A new implant analog system that improves the efficiency of the implant restoration's fabrication process is described. This 2-piece analog contains an outer plastic sleeve that is retained within the stone cast. The inner portion, a metal analog, can be easily removed and replaced within the plastic sleeve. Because the metal analog is removable, the time-consuming process of screwing and unscrewing the prosthesis- or abutment-retaining screws during laboratory procedures can be minimized. The prosthesis can remain secured to the analog during waxing, metal finishing, and porcelain buildup, yet is easily removed from the cast for inspection.
