Adhesive Interface Design

The Extended Anatomic Platform geometry and patient-specific emergence profile are, according to the manufacturer, intended to position the adhesive interface coronally and as far from the bone as the individual construction permits. This design rationale is not evidence of clinical risk reduction or a product-specific clinical outcome.

Manufacturer-described design feature

Recession Handling

According to manufacturer information, an exposed area of the thin titanium shell may be locally adjusted and polished in suitable cases. The manufacturer estimates this often at about 5–10 minutes; this is not a guaranteed treatment time. Polishing removes the anodized surface only in the locally adjusted, then supragingival area.

Official Description

🇩🇪 Deutsch

Nach Herstellerangaben besteht EAP® aus einer dünnen, patientenspezifischen Titanschale. Titan ist im gingivalen Bereich vorgesehen; das ästhetische Restaurationsmaterial liegt dahinter beziehungsweise darin. Die Geometrie soll die adhäsive Schnittstelle koronal und soweit es die Konstruktion erlaubt vom Knochen entfernt positionieren. Bei Rezession beschreibt der Hersteller in geeigneten Fällen eine lokale Anpassung und Politur, häufig geschätzt auf etwa 5–10 Minuten; dies ist keine garantierte Behandlungsdauer. Die Anodisierung entfällt nur im lokal bearbeiteten, dann supragingivalen Bereich. Diese Angaben sind Konstruktionsmerkmale, keine klinischen Ergebnisse.

According to manufacturer information, EAP® consists of a thin, patient-specific titanium shell. Titanium is positioned in the gingival region and the aesthetic restorative material behind or within the shell. The geometry is designed to position the adhesive interface coronally and as far from bone as the construction permits. In suitable recession cases, the manufacturer describes local adjustment and polishing, often estimated at about 5–10 minutes; this is not a guaranteed treatment time. These statements are design features, not clinical outcomes.
