KAT System: Restorative Advantages

KAT Implant System was designed to provide the restorative dentist with a range of capabilities not available with any other implant system.

  1. Single platform for implants ranging from 2.5mm to 5.0mm allows the use of the same restorative instrumentation.
  2. All implants, even 2.5mm mini implants, can receive all abutments. Abutments range from 4.2 to 6.5mm in diameter.
  3. Patent pending Pick-Up Abutment™ acts as an open tray coping to eliminate dimensional discrepancy between the impression coping and the abutment, and between the implant analog and the implant.
  4. Patent pending Pick-Up Abutment™ impression method makes locking taper connection accurate, predictable and reproducible.
  5. Locking taper connection is activated with a torque wrench at 15 Ncm – no tapping with the hammer is needed.
  6. No microgap between the implant/healing abutment and the implant due to locking taper connection.
  7. Increased soft tissue thickness due to a 3.1mm diameter of the implant post.
  8. Bacteria-proof seal between the implant and healing abutment is accomplished with only 15 Ncm of torque – no more loose healing abutments and soft tissue inflammation from leaking toxins.
  9. Temporary prosthesis can be fabricated and screw-retained over the healing abutment using patent pending HALT™ ( Healing Abutment Level Temporization™) technique, even at the time of surgery. Trauma to soft tissue is minimized because the healing abutment has to be removed only once.
  10. Patent pending Pick-Up Abutment™ indexing method insures the passive fit of screw-retained prosthesis.
