Metal Cap for Ball Abutment
Intended Use
The Metal Cap for Ball Abutment (622040, etc.) is intended for use in dental prosthetics to:
Serve as a matrix housing for nylon retention caps
Provide secure fixation of removable restorations on osseointegrated implants
Support stable and reliable overdenture retention
Indications
- Use with ball abutments (622040, etc.)
- Removable implant-supported restorations (overdentures)
- Use in combination with nylon caps (670238, etc.)
Contraindications
- Do not use in patients with known hypersensitivity to titanium
- Do not use if the component is damaged or deformed
Preparation Before Use
