ANGULATED SCREW CHANNEL ABUTMENT
Unlock the angled advantage
Angulated Screw Channel
The ASC (Angulated Screw Channel) is a scannable abutment with a cutout in the abutment post to allow for screw tightening to occur at angles up to 20°. This allows for the restoration to have a screw access channel at an angle (up to 20°) from the prosthetic vertical axis. The ASC Solution uses an ASC screwdriver and dedicated ASC screws with a torx connection.
8 mm tall chimney with laser markings
Two laser marked height indicators at 4.5 mm and 6 mm allow the height of the chimney to be altered to match the crown height
Titanium nitride coated
Indicated to reduce early bacterial colonisation, biofilm formation and enhance fibroblast cell proliferation and attachment.¹
Sleek and slender abutment to be used in the aesthetic zone. An increase in the abutment height leads to higher retention of the cement retained crown.²
Ball torx-6 interface
Enabling a higher preload torque value. Allows for engagement at all angulations up to 20°. Reduces the risk of stripping the screw interface. Equivalent preload achieved when compared to standard straight drivers.
