[QUOTE="PDC, post: 295719, member: 3385"] I really don’t understand your logic here. There is no reason to use non engaging abutments. You can design the abutments to be paralleI and achieve a passive fit with the bridge eliminating worries about broken screws. Engaging abutments will provide a more secure abutment. Reason being is that you have [U]more surface area[/U] “engaged” at the abutment interface thus providing more stability. lf screw torque protocols are followed then you shouldn’t have any screw breakage issues. Give the doctor an insertion guide as insurance if need be. [/QUOTE]
