[QUOTE="Markyboy, post: 330157, member: 914"] I have a RC Straumann in a spot where a WN should be. Prosthodontist was telling my Dr that it was done to save the bone (Platform Shift). As I understand with Platform Shift it is just engaging the implant with an abutment at a higher level than the platform of the implant in order to save bone loss??? Not sure if that statement is correct. Never done one like this before. Am I ordering a regular RC Variobase and building a massive crown on that small abutment or is there something else I should be ordering? Of course my Straumann rep has gone MIA. Thanks M [ATTACH type="full"]37409[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
