PropertyValue
?:definition
  • Devices designed to provide a mechanical link between a dental implant and an external prosthesis. Pillars typically consist of a metal piece (a connector) which links externally (frequently threaded) to the dental implant at one end and fitted to the prosthesis (e.g., pontic, bridge or crown) at the other end. The pillar end intended for attaching to the prosthesis may be straight, angled, or round; standard and custom shaped types of attachments are available. Pillars that can be threaded to the dental implant to facilitate mounting and/or removal are also frequently available. Dental implant pillars are components of fixed partial or total dental prostheses.
