I sent out a bridge last week that used angulated screw channel abutments over implants. It was a new concept for the doctor but she agreed it was a good plan for this specific patient. She called later while the patient was in the chair. Everything fit nicely, esthetics were great. She'd hand tightened the bridge in place with no problem. When she went to torque the screws in place, one went well and she says she couldn't get the second screw torqued. The driver kept slipping.
Straumann implants, Straumann ASC driver, Straumann torque wrench, Preat dynamic abutments. The master model was verified with a verification jig.
She eventually released the patient with one abutment torqued and the other hand tightened. She'll see him again in a couple weeks. I had another doctor have the same problem about 2 years ago.
Any insights?
