Clinical Data
SMART 1 Screw-Retained Restorations are supported by extensive clinical success, underscoring their reliability and effectiveness in a wide range of restorative applications. Clinical studies highlight that screw-retained designs minimize peri-implant complications due to their cement-free nature, reducing the risk of inflammation and promoting long-term tissue health.
Indications for Use
Clinical Handling
SMART 1 Screw-Retained Restorations require proper clinical handling to ensure successful outcomes. By following best practices, complications are minimized and the restoration’s functionality and aesthetics are optimized. This includes using a surgical guide for accurately predicting the screw access hole’s position and angulation. This ensures optimal alignment, reduces chairside adjustments, and enhances the overall success of the restoration.
Traditional Workflow
Impression Taking
Use high-quality PVS material to capture an accurate implant-level impression.
Bite Registration
Provide a precise bite registration to ensure occlusal alignment.
Lab Prescription
Specify the desired material, restoration type, and shade.
Implant Analog
For accurate model fabrication, include the appropriate analog and impression coping (post, abutment).
Digital Workflow
Intraoral Scan
Capture a detailed impression of the implant site, including the scan body, teeth, gingival contours, and occlusal surfaces. Specify the platform, series, diameter, and scan body.
File Submission
Upload STL or other compatible files through the portal at Burbank Dental Lab.
Case Preferences
Clearly outline design, material, and shade specifications.
Approval
Review and approve the final design before fabrication.
SMART 1 Screw-Retained Restoration Placement Guidelines
Verify Fit and Design
Before placement, confirm the fit and design of the restoration to ensure it meets the case specifications.
Clean the Implant Site
Ensure the implant platform is free of debris and properly prepared for restoration.
Case Preferences
Follow the manufacturer’s torque recommendations for securing the restoration to avoid over-tightening or under-securing.
Approval
Use articulating paper to check occlusion and make necessary adjustments to prevent excessive forces on the implant.
Cementation-Free Design
One of the most significant advantages of SMART 1 Screw-Retained Restorations is their cement-free design. This approach eliminates the risk of residual cement-related complications, such as peri-implantitis, while promoting healthy peri-implant tissues. Additionally, the retrievability of these restorations simplifies maintenance, enhancing their longevity and ensuring patient satisfaction.
FAQ
How do I ensure accurate screw access hole positioning?
Using a surgical guide is crucial for accurately predicting the screw access hole’s position and angulation. This ensures optimal outcomes and minimizes adjustments. Proper planning and collaboration with the dental lab during the design phase also contribute to achieving accurate placement. Providing detailed information about implant angulation, restoration goals, and case specifics during the workflow process allows for greater precision in the final design.
How do I send digital files to Burbank Dental Lab?
To send digital files, capture a detailed intraoral scan of the implant site, neighboring teeth, and gingival contours. Save the file in STL or another compatible format, and upload it through the online portal at the Burbank Dental Lab website. Ensure that all relevant case information, including design preferences, material selection, and shade details, is provided during submission. If you encounter any issues, the support team at Burbank Dental Lab is available to assist.
How do I determine which type of SMART 1 Screw-Retained Restoration I should use?
The choice of SMART 1 Screw-Retained Restoration depends on the specific clinical requirements of the case:
