| 05/08/2008 - Leone implant system: Several prosthetic solutions for more natural looking outcomes |
The Exacone? implant system, developed to perfectly reproduce a natural tooth, is based on a solid abutment connected to the implant through a self-locking Morse taper and a inner hex for positioning and anti-rotation. The micrometric precision of the components and the absence of retaining screws make such a system one of the safest in the implantology field. Its reliability and mechanical stability are widely proved by the low incidence of long-term prosthetic complications.

However, the desired results often differ wildly from the tooth shades that occur naturally.
