Dear clinical practitioner working with prosthetic dentistry
When placing implant restorations, screw access hole channels of abutments and final constructions must be closed to avoid cement clogging, accumulation of bacteria and debris and obtain the final strength of the restoration.
The literature reports no consensus about recommended procedures and/or materials for closure of the screw access hole channel and large variations exists.
To map out if there are any differences within and between the Nordic countries when it comes to procedures and materials in this respect, we would be grateful for your help to fill out this brief questionnaire:

The questionnaire takes 2-10 minutes to finish.
Inquiries regarding this questionaire should be directed to Mina Aker Sagen at m.a.sagen@niom.no.
Best regards,
Mina Aker Sagen, Ellen Flosadóttir, Julie Erica Schlosser, Timo Närhi, and Per Vult von Steyern
