Abstract
An omni-abutment includes (i) an apical connection portion that mates/attaches with the receiving portion on a corresponding implant; and (ii) a coronal superstructure. The dental abutment provides features that are not currently found in abutments on the market, allowing the abutment to be used as a key foundation for scanning, impression taking, stability testing, and much more which ultimately would lead to an easier restorative process and fabrication of a dental prosthesis. The abutment could also be used for fabrication of a final prosthesis. The abutment may include alignment indents or protrusions in a platform thereof, internal grooves (e.g., square or rounded) as a tri-lobe or other configuration in the central axial hollow channel, recesses (e.g., divots, grooves) in the exterior periphery for increased adhesion to a gingival healing cuff, internal threading in the hollow channel, and a hex, NC or other connection at the apical connection portion.
