[QUOTE="TheLabGuy, post: 349621, member: 126"] It's a sad day when you have to quote yourself but I'm WRONG folks. In my defense and as I wipe the egg off my face I can say I wasn't wrong for why I thought and stated above. Therefore, I'm changing my mind over ti-bases. I've done some research and caught a lecture by Dr. Tomas Linkevicius from Lithuania. A well published Prosthodontist and he uses ti-bases exclusively. Why you ask?...because by using polished zirconia below the tissue it has stopped over 80% of any bone loss or perio-implantist. Matter of fact, using polished zirconia below the gingiva line actually regrew bone and tissue. Sounds crazy but it's true, seen many dehissence implants regenerate bone growth and we're saved without any surgical intervention. Furthermore, the stability of an implant comes from the implant placement and those do's/dont's versus the ti-bases. Tissue and bone love polished zirconia, pictures and x-rays and the research isn't lieing. Has nothing to do with a titanium supported crown and when compared to polished zirconia, the polished zirconia wins hands down in a screw-retained environment. So, i was wrong. [/QUOTE]
