Ball Attachment Abutment
The Ball Attachment Abutment is a sphere-headed component designed to secure removable prostheses (dentures) to implants, particularly in edentulous patients. This spherical structure snaps into a retentive socket placed inside the denture, preventing the prosthesis from moving and significantly increasing patient comfort.
Wide Range of Heights
Available in five different "cuff" (neck) heights—1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 mm—to ensure full compatibility with various gingival thicknesses.
High Tightening Strength
Secured onto the implant with a strong recommended torque value of 35 Ncm to maximize prosthetic stability.
Why Matthias Ball Attachment Abutment?
Main Reasons
- Maximum Prosthetic Retention: The spherical head structure prevents removable dentures from dislodging or shifting while eating, providing the patient with a natural tooth feel and high chewing confidence.
- Ease of Clinical Application: Neck options ranging from 1.0 mm to 5.0 mm grant the clinician the flexibility to select the most suitable component based on post-surgical gingival levels.
- Long-Lasting and Strong Connection: The 35 Ncm torque capacity ensures a flawless union with the implant body, preventing the loosening of components under the prosthesis.
- Economic and Functional Solution: Offers an "overdenture" (implant-supported removable) infrastructure that is more economical than complex fixed bridges yet remains extremely stable and user-friendly.
Everything You Need to Know
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the connection advantage of the Matthias implant system?
Provides bacterial sealing thanks to the 11-degree Morse Taper connection and completely prevents abutment micro-movements.
How does the implant surface structure affect osseointegration?
Special thread design and "Surface Increaser" technology increase the bone contact surface, accelerating the healing process and maximizing primary stability.
Should different prosthetic parts be used for all diameters?
No. Our system is clinician-friendly; all implant diameters have a single standard connection type, which simplifies stock management and the application process.
What safety does the Atraumatic Apex design provide in surgery?
The spherical tip structure of the implant minimizes the risk of damaging critical anatomical structures such as the sinus floor or nerve channels during placement.
Is it compatible with digital workflow (CAD/CAM)?
Yes. With our Scan Body and Ti-Base options, we support a full digital workflow, providing high-precision restoration opportunities.
