  • Porcelain fused to gold alloy substructure
  • Titanium abutments
  • Dentistry by Dr. Carl E. Misch

Some clinicians prefer the lab to prep the abutments for a common path of insertion. We have Swiss made precision milling machine with burs of 0, 2, 4 and 6 degree taper to properly finish the job.

When I first started with Tom he virtually taught me every time we were on the phone. By giving me ideas he has greatly improved my protocol. I shared all these little tricks with my peers. Later we invited Tom to Missoula for our study club. He turned out a great speaker on implant related subjects for us and our lab technicians.
