A prefabricated protective component used in the implant restoration laboratory phase to temporarily safeguard the precision interface of the composite abutment analog and maintain its emergence profile.
Protects the precision anti-rotation structure (e.g., internal hexagon, spline, etc.) at the top of the composite abutment analog from contamination by plaster or dust, and from physical damage during model pouring, transport, or storage.
Preserves the original contour of the transmucosal portion of the composite abutment analog, preventing accidental impact or abrasion in subsequent steps and ensuring the integrity of its shape.
