Quality, versatility and reliability with the Straumann CARES Variobase Abutment [VIDEO]

The Straumann^® CARES^® Variobase™ Abutment is a hybrid abutment with a titanium-alloy bonding base and customized zirconium dioxide coping, delivering the reliability of a titanium connection with the pleasing esthetics of a ceramic coping. The CARES Variobase Abutment can be used as a screw-retained, full-contour solution for your referring clinicians. The patented* engaging mechanism between the CARES Variobase coping and the CARES Variobase abutment offers reliability and efficiency when bonding the two components into a finished, one-piece CARES Variobase Abutment.  

Two restorative materials are available for a CARES Variobase Coping: zirconium dioxide zerion^®, and polycon^® AE, a temporary material. The CARES Variobase Abutment can be used for single-tooth screw-retained or cement-retained restorations, or cement-retained bridges via a mesostructure. *patent pending in U.S.
