A Modified Technique for Fabricating Customized Angled Dual Abutments for Implants with Severe Angulations

Ideally, dental implants should be placed parallel to each other and perpendicular to the occlusal forces. However, they might be implanted with undesirable angulations due to anatomic limitations such as proximity to infra alveolar nerve or maxillary sinus or dentist incompetency. Improper angulati...

Improper angulation is often addressed at the prosthetic stage of the treatment via using angled abutments.
