摘要:
The joint assembly for dental implant abutment includes an abutment section adapted for attachment to a dental implant and a ball section selectively mounted to the abutment section at a user-selectable angle. The abutment section includes a base member having a recessed socket. A plurality of threaded bores radiate into the base member from the socket. The ball section includes a spherical head having a threaded post extending therefrom for mounting the ball joint into a user-selectable threaded bore in the socket to properly orient an integral locator mounting cap retained on the spherical head for attachment of a denture to the joint assembly. The angular orientation of the threaded bores allows a restorative dentist to adjust the joint assembly for effective mounting of the denture or other dental appliance.
