[QUOTE="TheLabGuy, post: 286846, member: 126"] I'll answer this...Three major advantages using the BDT technique over zirconium or metal. 1. Being the use of Pekkton, it's a pressable or millable (I prefer to mill my frames). I know some labs that are using the Pekkton material now for ALL of their fixed custom abutments. Why you ask?...because Pekkton acts like a periodontal ligament, a shock absorber per say where implants traditionally don't have one. 2. Being able to adapt ceramic crowns to the Pekkton framework, patients absolutely LOVE IT!!! So here you have a very light hybrid implant supported denture, that feel's like 'real teeth' (almost every patient states this, it feels so real, like real teeth). 3. The BDT technique, the way if anything fails, that's fine...it can be easily fixed, less than a day in almost all cases. We have done quite a few of these and look forward to doing more and entertaining the idea of doing our own in-house custom abutments using this material. [/QUOTE]
