Sterilization
The hybrid abutments or hybrid abutment crowns must be sterilized prior to insertion.
Furthermore, the locally applicable legal regulations and the hygiene standards
applicable for a dental practice must be observed.
Steam sterilization can be performed with the 3 x fractionated pre-vacuum with the
following parameters: Sterilization time 3 min; steam temperature 132 °C/270 °F;
resulting in a half-cycle exposure time of 1.5 min. The abutment is for immediate use.
No storage after sterilization!
The responsibility for the sterility of the hybrid abutment or hybrid abutment crown lies with the user. It must be ensured
that only suitable devices, materials and product-specifically validated methods are used to perform sterilization.
The equipment and devices must be properly maintained and serviced at regular intervals. The fabricator (dental technician)
of the IPS e.max CAD Abutment Solution must inform the dentist of the need to sterilize the abutment before inserting it
in the patient’s mouth!
Intraoral preparation
Please observe the following procedure to prepare for the permanent cementation of the implant-supported restoration:
– Remove the temporary restoration.
– Clean the implant site.
– Check the periimplant tissue (emergence profile).
