[QUOTE="JohnWilson, post: 119634, member: 213"] We can not prove any of our ASSUMPTIONS on this case but from what I see it looks like trauma. I would bet I have at least 3000 Zi abutments in the mouth that I either milled or outsourced or prepped stock parts. Some had the manufacturers ti base, some a machined parts some all zirconia. The absolute worst offending product for me is an ALL ZIRCONIA interface. We will not guarantee them and suggest hybrid abutments. Zirconia is just another tool, if the case is contraindicated because of off axis load because of angle or if the dimensions can not be achieved per the manufacturer's recommendation for milled ZIRCONIA then well don't make it. I agree that Ti is way more bullet proof but they are not practical in the esthetic zone. On this case it looks like it could easily have been done with a Ti abutment and a FCZ with perfect results.
