[QUOTE="Brett Hansen CDT, post: 343129, member: 3194"] Those conical variobases are very poorly designed. I used them once several years ago at the insistence of the straumann rep. Bridge debonded within a few months. They have new non engaging variobases that are cylindrical like their engaging variobases now. I think you have to download the european DMEs to get them though(at least I had to a few months ago). I have no idea how the bridge could be loose without the screws being loose or one of the implants becoming un-integrated. If the bridge isnt debonding from the abutments, I would definitely get new screws. I would also verify that all the correct parts were used as far as platform sizes. [/QUOTE]
