Implants
As an extension of Crown and Bridge treatment, implants have become the standard of care for treatment of edentulous and partially edentulous patients. Various appliances can be fabricated to ease and enhance implant treatment in both their surgical and prosthetic phases. From proper diagnosis and treatment planning to placement and delivery of restorations, implant treatment can be straightforward and uneventful when working with the right lab partner. Mark Tillman, our implant specialist who oversees case planning, design, fabrication and delivery, has participated in the development of this restorative option from its beginning.

Most implant systems in existence today offer numerous alternatives to address different clinical scenarios. When working with our clients on case planning, Spectrum Dental Laboratories carefully selects the appropriate implant systems that are both proven and progressive.
Our highly-trained staff is proficient with all major implant systems. We provide the critical support needed to ensure successful implant cases from start to finish. A custom-made Abutment Positioning Jig is included with each abutment at no additional charge.
We’ve done our homework; check out our implant torque guide.
Our client dentists enjoy the ease of taking impressions around implants with a Spectrum Dental Lab innovation: a special impression coping that eliminates the need for cord packing.
We work closely with both the implant surgeon and the restorative dentist through all the important stages, including:

With the development of CAD/CAM systems, designing custom abutments has never been easier. We can now offer patient- and site-specific abutments in titanium, gold-anodized titanium, and zirconia. Spectrum-designed emergence profiles better complement natural tooth form and provide superior support and margin placement.
We respect implant manufacturer warranties and keep them intact by having the abutments milled by the manufacturer whenever possible. Spectrum carries laboratory certification for Nobel Biocare and Straumann milled components and uses 3Shape in conjunction with Atlantis milling center to develop abutments for all Dentsply implants, as well as BioHorizons, Keystone, Neoss, and Zimmer.
