4. Plastic Temporary Abutment

  • Material: Plastic
  • Features: Available in Hex and Non-hex types, with G/H 2.0.
  • Applications:
    • Used exclusively for temporary restorations due to its lightweight and easy-to-modify properties.
    • Ideal for chairside adjustments and short-term use during the healing phase.
    • Not suitable for long-term use due to lower strength compared to metal or titanium options.

Summary of Differences:

  • Permanent vs. Temporary:
    • Direct-Casting (Gold) and Metal-Casting (Co-Cr) are for permanent restorations.
    • Ti-Temporary and Plastic Temporary are for interim use.
  • Material Properties:
    • Gold and Co-Cr offer high strength for long-term use.
    • Titanium is biocompatible and used for healing phases.
    • Plastic is lightweight and adjustable but less durable.
  • Versatility:
    • Ti-Temporary abutments offer more height options (G/H 1.0 and 3.0), making them adaptable to varying gingival thicknesses.

These abutments cater to different clinical needs, from high-end permanent prosthetics to cost-effective temporary solutions. The choice depends on the patient’s requirements, budget, and the specific stage of treatment.
