How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter the Implant Platform Diameter (mm) matching the implant system.
  2. Set Emergence Profile and Tissue Thickness to calculate the crown-margin relationship.
  3. Input the Collar/Cuff Height to match the transmucosal depth.
  4. Enter Angulation Correction (0-30 degrees) if the implant is angled.
  5. Select the Abutment Material (Titanium, Zirconia, or Gold/UCLA).
  6. Review Emergence Diameter, Abutment Height, and the Retention Assessment to confirm the selection.

What each input means

Implant Platform Diameter
Restorative platform diameter of the implant.
Emergence Profile
Desired lateral emergence from platform to crown margin.
Tissue Thickness
Soft tissue thickness at the implant site.
Collar / Cuff Height
Transmucosal collar height.
Angulation Correction
Degrees of correction for angled implant placement.
Abutment Material
Abutment material choice.

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Implant Platform Diameter = 4.1, Emergence Profile = 1, Tissue Thickness = 2, Collar / Cuff Height = 2 = 6 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Emergence Diameter
    Emergence Diameter
    6.1 = 6.1
  3. Calculate Abutment Height
    Abutment Height
    4.5 = 4.5
  4. Calculate Margin Depth
    Margin Depth
    1.5 = 1.5
  5. Calculate Effective Retention Height
    Effective Retention Height
    4.5 = 4.5
