Straumann® CARES® Abutments.
Customized shape and emergence profile Straumann CARES Abutments are designed to offer patient-specific emergence profiles and an anatomic shape to support optimal soft tissue management.
Control over the cement gap Straumann CARES Abutments help clearing excess cement because the cement margin can be ideally placed for each individual restoration.
Optimized insertion path Flexible design parameters allow for angulation corrections and adjustments, which can simplify the insertion of the final restoration.
Optimum convenience during restoration processes Straumann CARES Abutments provide precision, time and cost savings throughout the restoration process.

Additional information on 3M™ ESPE™ LAVA™ Ultimate Restorative Preparation guidelines A traditional design is recommended for inlays and onlays. Do not prepare any undercuts. Bevel the cavity walls 5 – 6 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the preparation. Round all inner edges and angles. The incisal/occlusal reduction is carried out with 1.5 to 2 mm clearance with centric occlusion and all excursion movements. For veneers, the standard reduction is 0.6 mm on the labial surface and 0.4 mm in the gingiva, as the enamel is thinner there. The reduction in the incisal, labial-lingual angle is 0.5 to 1.5 mm. Leave the preparation margins in the enamel. The margins for veneers should pass above the gingiva. In addition, they should extend far enough into the approximal area so that the margins are not visible, and also should not have any approximal-gingival undercuts. For crowns and partial crowns, an axial reduction of 1.2 to 1.5 mm with a taper angle of 5 – 6 degrees is performed. The incisal/ occlusal reduction is carried out with 1.5 to 2 mm clearance with centric occlusion and all excursion movements. Shoulders must extend at least 1.0 mm to lingual in the approximal contact area. Non-beveled shoulder border lines are recommended.
Available colors High translucency (HT) is available in the following colors: A1, A2, A3, B1. Low translucency (HT) is available in the following colors: A1, A2, A3, A3,5, B1, C2, D2, Bleach. Specifications Material

Additional information on VITA Mark II Tooth preparation guidelines The teeth need to be cooled sufficiently during preparation and must not be overheated by excessive pressure during grinding. Only use instruments with a good cutting performance. Rough preparation must be carried out before final preparation. The pulp must be protected against damage caused by grinding. Subgingival preparation margins must be avoided.
The preparation must meet the following requirements: Tooth-specific preparation The upper and lower tooth axes are aligned with each other. The required residual thickness of the dentine layer of 0.7 – 1.0 mm is ensured in all areas.
Preparation information for anterior and posterior crowns: A groove or shoulder with a rounded inner edge must be prepared. The aim is to achieve a continuous gradation of 1 mm in depth. The vertical preparation angle must be at least 3°. All transitions from the axial to the occlusal or incisal surfaces must be rounded. Subgingival preparation margins should generally be avoided.
Preparation guidelines for veneers Avoid an approximal 'gutter-shaped' preparation.
