The Reverse Margin™ is a design feature that describes the shape of the margin built into a custom abutment and its complimentary prosthesis. It affects the direction of flow of cement during the process of intra-oral cementation. The Reverse Margin™ redirects the flow of the cement away from, rather than into the tissues that surround dental implants. This margin design can be used as part of the Cement Control System™ proposed by Emil L.A. Svoboda PhD, DDS, to prevent or reduce the occurrence of peri-implant disease.

Why should Dental Laboratories, Milling Centres, Implant Manufacturers and Distributors want to consider the Reverse Margin™ System as part of their solution portfolios?

Implant treatment can lead to an amazing standard of care for patients. However, inherent risk factors can predispose patients to complications. Some of these risk factors relate to the patient’s health and ability to maintain the tissues around the dental implants. Some risk factors relate to the current treatment processes.

It is estimated that 65% of patients experience some degree of peri-implant disease. “The onset of the disease is likely to occur 3 years after treatment and displays a non-linear accelerating pattern to 9 years.” (1) “At present there are no predictable concepts for the treatment of peri-implantitis.

Primary prevention is of prime importance.” (2) Treatment for peri-implant disease can be unpredictable, uncomfortable, and expensive.

Dr. Svoboda has identified two root causes of complications related to the installation of new teeth. His treatment protocols have been specifically created to prevent preventable problems. (3), (4)

Have you ever wondered?

Are implant companies and distributors culpable for complications when they do not provide instructions that can guide dentists to install their implant parts into the mouths of patients in compliance with the spirit of Health Canada and FDA regulations?
Do they lose potential consumers of their products because of the high prevalence of peri-implant disease related to implant treatment?
Do they risk losing loyal dentist customers because of recurring complications that they cannot not predict and that involve their brand of implant?
Do their Specialist doctors risk losing entire referral sources because the root causes of complications involving the restorative process are not understood?

The Reverse Margin™ System is an approach to restoring dental implants born out of 21st century research and development. It consists of three parts:

A unique patented custom abutment, that is used to connect new teeth to implants. It has an “inflected margin design” that can protect patients by making it easier for dentists to optimize the fit of implants to abutments and new teeth. It also helps the dentists prevent cement from going deep into the tissue spaces.

A unique patented custom prosthesis that is cemented over abutment(s), after they are installed onto their implants in the mouth. Its design allows for more controlled low-pressure cementation and facilitates excess cement movement out of the tissues rather than into them. Its profile also compliments that of its abutment, to compensate for Prosthesis Dimensional Error and mitigate the Tissue Effects.

A complimentary installation system that is designed to make it easier for the dentist to optimize results for the patient. (3)(4)

The Reverse Margin System, unlike other current cement-in installation system

Is designed to prevent overhanging and open margins, and prevent the occurrence of residual subgingival cement. (3)

The Reverse Margin System, unlike current screw-in installation systems

is designed to help the dentist to consistently optimize the fit of implant-abutment and abutment-prosthesis connections and allows the dentist to narrow the profile of the attached prosthesis to improve access to care of the peri-implant tissues. (4)

Simply stated, the Reverse Margin™ System is designed to help the dentist to consistently achieve better results for the patient by reducing known risk factors for mechanical and related biological problems like peri-implant disease.

    Indeed, the troubling prevalence of peri-implant disease reported by Derks & Tomasi (6) prompted the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario (RCDSO) to advise all dentists in Ontario of these important findings, by sending them all a printed copy. (7)
    An influential Prosthodontist wrote in his book, “It is likely the abutments of the future will look very different from what we see today”. (8)
    The future has arrived! Dr. Svoboda has created the Reverse Margin™ System that is different and makes it easier for dentists to avoid exposing their patients to several risk factors for peri-implant disease.
