EVALUATION OF CERAMIC ABUTMENTS IN MECHANICAL, BIOLOGICAL AND ESTHETICAL PERSPECTIVE

Öz

To date, Titanium has hold a dominant position as an abutment material in implant therapy. However, the demands for highly esthetic restorations led to the development of ceramic abutments. Currently, zirconia and alumina abutments are widely used in esthetic regions. Besides esthetics, peri-implant tissue health and mechanical strenght are also important in the selection of abutment material. The purpose of this article is evaluation of the in vivo and in vitro studies of the mechanical, biological and esthetic properties of abutment materials

SERAMİK ABUTMENTLERİN MEKANİK, BİYOLOJİK VE ESTETİK AÇIDAN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Öz

Günümüze kadar titanyum, implant tedavile- rinde abutment materyali olarak hakim bir yer almaktaydı. Ancak, yüksek estetik restorasyon beklen- tileri seramik abutmentlerin gelişmesini sağlamıştır. Günümüzde, zirkonya ve alumina abutmentler estetik bölgelerde yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Estetiğin dışında, implant çevresi yumuşak doku sağlığı ve mekaniksel dayanıklılık da abutment materyali seçiminde önemlidir. Bu makalenin amacı seramik abutment materyallerini; mekanik, biyolojik ve estetik özelliklerini in vivo ve in vitro açıdan inceleyen literatürlerin değerlendirilmesidir.
