[QUOTE="npdynamite, post: 342153, member: 11802"] I feel pretty certain I have seen these before but everything that came to mind didn't match when I searched. Part of the difficulty though is that several companies seem to have redesigned their Ti bases to allow for angled screw channels so it's possible this design is no longer in use. Is there any anti-rotation in addition to the flat side? Also in my search I stumbled upon this, ([URL]https://titanimplants.com/zimmer-dental-screw-vent-and-tapered-screw-vent-compatible-4-5mm-platform-titanium-base-abutment-height-6-0mm-with-ti-screw-p-45tb6h-zd/[/URL]) which looks quite similar. That said I have never used Ti bases from this company and I do feel like I have used one like the one that you have. Also I don't see any sign of the horizontal retention grooves in the one you have, but those could have been taken off in process. Another company that comes to mind is B&D Dental, I know I used some of their components in the past but it doesn't appear that they make implant parts anymore. Glidewell also comes to mind, I couldn't find any images of their Ti bases but a previous lab used them a fair bit. I know this isn't particularly helpful but hoping it might help jog someone elses memory [/QUOTE]
