Straight, short-shoulder abutment for Wide 4.5 platform - clean emergence, easy seating, dependable retention
The Surcam Straight Abutment Short Shoulder – Wide Platform is a precision titanium Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) straight abutment designed to create a clean, hygienic emergence profile on Wide Platform 4.5 implants with an Internal Hex 2.42 mm connection. The short shoulder minimizes subgingival bulk while supporting soft-tissue health and esthetics. Offered in gingival heights 1.0 / 2.0 / 3.0 mm, it streamlines chairside workflows for single crowns and short-span bridges.
Includes: 1× Wide Platform Straight Abutment, 1× Prosthetic (abutment) Screw.
Compatibility: Internal Hex 2.42 (Wide Platform 4.5) families including Alpha Bio®, Zimmer®, MIS®, Adin®, Implant Direct®, AB Dental® (verify interface/fit).

Surcam Straight Abutments FAQs
Which implant platforms are compatible?
Wide Platform 4.5 implants using an Internal Hex 2.42 mm interface; commonly Alpha Bio®, Zimmer®, MIS®, Adin®, Implant Direct®, AB Dental® (confirm interface and platform before use).
How do I choose the gingival height?
Match GH to soft-tissue thickness and desired emergence: thin tissue → 1.0 mm; average → 2.0 mm; thicker biotype/convex emergence → 3.0 mm. Confirm clinically and radiographically.
Is this abutment for cement-retained or screw-retained restorations?
Primarily for cement-retained crowns/bridges; the included screw secures the abutment to the implant. Follow your system’s prosthetic protocol.
What torque should I apply?
Use the manufacturer’s IFU torque for the abutment screw on IH 2.42 Wide 4.5 platforms. Do not exceed specified values.
Does the short shoulder affect tissue health?
A shorter transmucosal shoulder helps limit subgingival bulk and can support cleansability and soft-tissue contour when combined with proper margin design and hygiene.
Can I use this in posterior load cases?
Yes, Wide 4.5 platform supports broader emergence and posterior occlusal demands when used within prosthetic and occlusal guidelines.
