About the Authors < Page 24 firmed, then the site is enlarged to appropriate implant diameter & length and the implant with the appropriate built in angula- tion is inserted(Figure7). The angle correction of the implant is therefore at a sub-crestal level and prosthetic space is not uti- lized by angulated abutments. Conclusion Today more clinicians are ad- vocating the use of angled im- plants. This leads to less grafting procedures that not only mini- mizestheoveralltreatmenttime, but also reduces the cost and di- minishes the patient’s morbidity associated with grafting proce- dures. Co-Axis implants also al- low early or immediate loading protocols that would otherwise not be possible with grafting procedures. Therefore, the use of native bone, the avoidance of expensive angulated abutments, decreased patient morbidity, re- duced cost, benefits of immedi- ate loading, likelihood of screw retained restorations, and elimi- nation of long cantilevers are all advantages of using Co-Axis implants.
