Frequently Asked Questions
Explore our detailed resource guide covering everything from digital planning to final prosthesis delivery to ensure a smooth and predictable experience with the IPS Preprosthetic® system.
Implant Compatibility
Review the engineering specifications regarding Multi-Unit Abutment (MUA) design, titanium grades, and the system’s versatility with major implant brands.
Which major implant brands are compatible with the MUA design?
Our removable Multi-Unit Abutments are designed to interface with most industry-standard prosthetic components, providing high versatility for the restorative team.
Are the abutments interchangeable?
Yes, the removable design allows for the easy replacement or adjustment of abutments without needing to modify the underlying IPS® framework.
What titanium grades are used to ensure biocompatibility?
We use medical-grade Titanium alloy (Ti-6AI-4V) that meets rigorous international standards for biocompatibility and commonly used in medical devices.
Prosthesis Delivery
These questions cover the final steps of loading the framework and delivering the patient’s permanent restoration.
Does the system support both screw-retained and cement-retained options?
The platform is primarily optimized for screw-retained restorations to ensure ease of maintenance, though cement retained options can be designed upon request.
Can the framework be loaded immediately following surgery?
Due to the rigid fixation and patient-specific fit, the IPS Preprosthetic® system is specifically designed to support immediate functional loading.
What are the recommended materials for the final full-arch restoration?
The system is compatible with a wide range of material, including fixed zirconia and removable bar-retained prosthesis, depending on the restorative physicians preference.
