DESS AURUMBase® Engaging Compatible with: Straumann® BLX
Platform size: WB
The AngleBase® Ti-base comes with an angulated screw that takes the DESS angulated screw channel driver. The Recommended torque is 35 ncm.
Wax up sleeves sold separately.
Thanks to the uniquely shaped profile an angled screw insertion of up to 25° with full torque can be achieved. SelectGrip® is applied to the retention surfaces and the design is incorporated to the official DESS® CAD libraries from Exocad®, 3Shape® and Dental Wings®. There are clinical situations where the long axis of the implant results in an unfavourable location of the screw access hole.
To solve this and maintain the screw retrievability the AURUMBase® allows you to move the access hole to a more favourable location by angling the screw channel up to 25° in any direction. This is achieved using a uniquely designed screw and driver that also makes it possible to reach full recommended torque even at maximum angulation.
The same screw connection and driver is used for all DESS® platforms which limits the amount of components and tools. A unique feature of the DESS® CAD software will also reduce the exit hole up to 30% compared to other angled solutions.
