ABSTRACT:
A dental implant-abutment combination that absorbs the forces of chewing, shifts some of the horizontal loads to a more vertical plane, shifts the horizontal loads which remain, to a point below the crest of the bone, lowers the pivoting axis, and distributes the forces over a larger surface area, all so as to prevent saucerization in the bone surrounding the implant, thereby preventing bacteria from gaining access to the deeper areas, and preventing implant failure due to the loss of supporting bone.
