Multi Unit – Abutment Lab Analog

Where this fits in the sequence: The Multi Unit Abutment Lab Analog is used during the laboratory model fabrication phase, after impressions or scans are taken, when the MU-level interface must be accurately replicated on a working model.

Why clinicians and labs choose MU lab analogs

• Selected to reproduce the exact MU interface geometry within stone or printed models.
• Commonly chosen when prosthetic components are fabricated at the multiunit level rather than implant level.
• Preferred when consistent model accuracy supports predictable fit of provisional and definitive restorations.

In-use behavior

In use, the lab analog connects to the impression coping or scan body and becomes embedded in the working model, allowing the MU position and orientation to be faithfully transferred from the clinical impression to the laboratory environment.

Clinical context

MU lab analogs are routinely incorporated into lab workflows where clinicians and technicians want to eliminate discrepancies between the intraoral MU position and the fabricated restoration.
