Frequently asked questions

What is the QuickBridge Cylinder and Cap used for?

The QuickBridge Cylinder and Cap is designed specifically for immediate load restoration in endosseous dental implant procedures. It allows clinicians to attach provisional bridges quickly and securely to Biomet 3i conical abutments, ensuring stability during early-stage implant healing. This reduces chair time and enhances patient comfort by enabling faster provisional restoration placement.

How is the QuickBridge Cylinder and Cap supplied and intended for use?

This device is supplied as a reusable accessory for clinical use by dental practitioners. It consists of a titanium alloy cylinder that threads onto Biomet 3i conical abutments, paired with a PEEK cap that snaps over the cylinder to secure provisional bridge components. Its design ensures compatibility exclusively with Biomet 3i implant systems, streamlining workflow for immediate-load scenarios.

Is the QuickBridge Cylinder and Cap single-use or reusable?

The QuickBridge Cylinder and Cap is intended for reusable clinical use. Its durable titanium alloy construction and modular design allow for repeated sterilization and application across multiple procedures, provided proper cleaning and maintenance protocols are followed. This makes it cost-effective for practices performing frequent immediate-load implant restorations.

What are the key dimensions or specifications for attachment?

The titanium cylinder threads onto Biomet 3i conical abutments with a 4.8 mm margin diameter, ensuring a precise and secure fit. The PEEK cap snaps over the cylinder to facilitate provisional bridge pickup, creating a stable interface for provisional restorations. These specifications are optimized for compatibility with Biomet 3i’s implant system components.

How should the QuickBridge Cylinder and Cap be stored?

The device should be stored in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to preserve its integrity. Since it is reusable, it must be thoroughly cleaned and sterilized between uses following standard dental instrument protocols. Proper storage prevents corrosion of the titanium cylinder and degradation of the PEEK cap, ensuring long-term functionality.
