I would never use a screw from another system/provider on any implant.

I delivered the case un-cemented yesterday. The Dr said he was going cement them together chairside after try-in, and use the original screw. So that was his call, and resolves the screw abutment question for now.

Thanks again for all of the helpful posts :)

I got curious and went on their web-site. I have bought from them before, but they do not seem to sell ti-bases anymore. Just scan bodies, analogs and screws...

I thought it looked like what Zahn used to sell a while ago, as their OEM ti-bases. Which may very well be the same as Glidewell.
Zahn was selling glidewell's tibases. Zimmer has two different screws so whoever created this could have used either the zimmer urs2 screw which has a 2.30mm head diameter or Zimmer screw MHLAS which has a 1.95mm screw head. The corresponding screws from DESS are 19.012 for urs2 and 19.042 for MHLAS. You can see these screw measurements on page 65 of this catalog - https://desscatalogs.s3.amazonaws.com/DESS+USA+2021+Catalog.pdf
