Study Notes
Polyvinyl Siloxane (PVS) Addition Silicone
- Hydrophilic property allows for best detail reproduction in a moist environment.
- High flow properties enable intimate contact with transfer coping.
- Rigidity secures implant coping position, allowing tissue contours to be "frozen".
Hybrid Abutments
- Lithium disilicate seated on a Ti base (hybrid) is one type of hybrid abutment.
- Zirconia seated on a Ti base (hybrid) is another type, milled from E.max or zirconia blocks and bonded to a titanium base by a resin cement in the laboratory.
- Hybrid abutments have a snap-on cap available in different colors, each determining a different size (e.g., yellow code for Narrow Coping, purple code for Regular Coping).
Advantages and Disadvantages
- Accurate replication of implant angulations is an advantage of hybrid abutments.
- Rotation of coping during analogue is a disadvantage of hybrid abutments.
