Abstract

See full text

A method of identifying healing caps and impression copings of a system of implant components used in a dental implantation procedure utilizing a permanent implanted base, wherein healing caps and impression copings are distinguished according to structural characteristics. The healing caps are classified according to width or diameter taken at the lower surface which abuts the implant, for compatibility with width or diameter of the restorative platform, height, and maximum diameter. Impression copings are classified according to width or diameter taken at the lower surface, and according to maximum diameter. Widths or diameters taken at the lower surface are preferably indicated by color coding. Other characteristics are indicated by indicia such as alphanumeric characters. Where alphanumeric characters are utilized, alphabetic characters denote one characteristic and numeric characters denote a second characteristic consistently between both healing caps and impression copings. Color coding and indicia may be replaced by surface texturing and other visually perceptible characteristics.
