A dental implant kit mainly consists of three core components: the implant, the abutment, and the crown. Some systems also include auxiliary accessories such as healing caps and transfer bars.
Implant:As an "artificial tooth root," it is usually made of titanium alloy or pure titanium. It is surgically implanted into the alveolar bone, forming a stable bond with the bone tissue and providing mechanical support.
Abutment: The intermediate structure connecting the implant and the crown. It is divided into prefabricated abutments and customized abutments, mostly made of titanium or zirconia. Its angle can be adjusted to optimize crown placement.
Crown: The superstructure, the visible part of the crown. It is commonly made of all-ceramic, porcelain-fused-to-metal, or metal alloy materials, restoring chewing function and aesthetics. Its color and shape can be customized.
In addition, the following may be used during surgery:
Healing Cap: Covers the implant post-surgery and guides gingival shaping;
Transfer Bar: Precisely positions the implant during impression taking to ensure accurate restoration.
