Exact-Duplicate Abutments

Dentists are reducing the amount of time it takes to restore implants by ordering exact-duplicate abutments through Town & Country Dental Studios. As part of the SIMPL Implant Restoration Protocol, Town & Country provides implant abutments that are designed on and precision-milled by computer. Making best use of this technology, the restoring dentist can request an exact-duplicate set of abutments. Using the SIMPL protocol, 1 set of abutments is placed on the fixtures in the patient's mouth while the other set stays on the working casts. This eliminates the need to remove and replace abutments during temporization, try-in, and placement of the definitive restoration.
