. Creating a new overdenture with the
Novaloc® Retentive System
Step 1 – Selecting the abutment
 Ensure that the implant shoulder is not covered by
hard or soft tissue
 Determine the appropriate abutment height by
counting the marks on the Novaloc® Plan Abut-
ments*.
Step 2 – Inserting the Abutment
 Screw the Novaloc® Abutment tightly by hand into
the implant using the Straumann® Screwdriver.
 Torque the abutment to 35Ncm using the Ratchet,
the Torque Control Device and the SCS Screwdriver.
Step 3 – Sealing the screw channel of the Novaloc®
Angled Abutment
 Use Teflon and composite in order to seal the screw
channel of the Novaloc® Angled Abutment. Ensure
that the composite is planar to the abutment.
Note:
A uniform horizontal height of all Novaloc® Abut-
ments makes it easier for the patient to insert the
prosthesis.

Novaloc® Retention Inserts
The Novaloc® matrix system allows for a prosthetic insertion of up to
+/-20° divergence, meaning 40° between two Novaloc® Abutments.
Note:
It is recommended to use the light retention force first (white). In
case it feels too loose for the patient, exchange with inserts with a
higher retention force.
Novaloc® Mounting Collar
The Mounting Collar blocks out the area surrounding the abutment,
preventing that resin or a bonding agent flows into the Matrix Hous-
ing and imbedding the abutment.
Novaloc® Matrix Housing, PEEK
The neutral-colored PEEK Matrix Housing is used for extremely labi-
al or buccal implant positions preventing grey irritation coming from
a titanium Matrix Housing.
Novaloc® Matrix Housing with attachment option
This Matrix Housing offers an extended attachment option. It is
used for low-lying abutment heights or in situations requiring more
retention. The attachment may be shortened according the required
height.
Novaloc® Mounting Insert
The Novaloc® Mounting Insert protects the interior of the Novaloc®
Matrix Housing and keeps it in place during processing. Further-
more, it also prevents any resin or bonding agents of entering into
the Novaloc® Matrix Housing during fixation.
Novaloc® Processing Spacer
The Novaloc® Processing Spacer is a placeholder for the Novaloc®
Matrix Housing. It is used for the model-cast, cast metal-reinforced
denture or if the Novaloc® Matrix Housing shall be polymerized into
the overdenture chair-side.

. Appendix
. Appendix A
.. Chair-side modification of an existing lower denture into an overdenture supported by Novaloc® Abutments
For an existing well-fitting and well-functioning lower complete denture, the Novaloc® Retentive System can be used in a
chair-side procedure.
Caution: It is a prerequisite however, that the lower complete denture does not need to be relined by a dental technician.
Place white Mounting Collars on each Novaloc® Abutment. The
Mounting Collars are used to block out the area surrounding the
abutments.
Caution: If the Novaloc® Mounting Collars do not completely fill the
space between the mucosa and the Matrix Housings any remaining
undercuts must be blocked out to prevent resin flowing under the
Matrix Housings. This can be accomplished by stacking two or more
Mounting Collars or a custom sized and pierced piece of rubber dam.
Then place a Matrix Housing with white Mounting Insert onto each
Novaloc® Abutment, leaving the white Mounting Collar beneath it.
Prepare the lower complete denture to accommodate the Novaloc®
Matrix Housings. Hollow out the existing denture base in the areas
of the Novaloc® Matrix Housings with handpiece and resin bur.
Note: Novaloc® Processing Spacers can be used instead of Matrix
Housings to create the space needed in the denture.
Use wash impression silicone to confirm adequate clearance be-
tween the Matrix Housings and the denture base.

Insert the lower complete denture into the patient’s mouth and
check the clearance. The Matrix Housings fixed on the abutments
should not touch the denture base. Reconfirm adequate space using
wash impression silicone. Adjust the denture base until seated pas-
sively in occlusion without touching the Matrix Housings.
Prepare the recess in the lower complete denture with monomer.
Protect areas where you don’t want the resin with a thin layer of
petroleum jelly.
Fill the hollowed area with self-curing PMMA resin to polymerize the
Matrix Housings in the denture.
Apply a small amount of acrylic resin to the recess of the denture
base and around the Matrix Housings. Insert the lower complete
denture into the oral cavity.
Once the lower complete denture is properly seated, maintain the
patient in full occlusion while the acrylic sets.
Once the resin has cured, remove the lower complete denture from
the mouth and discard the white Novaloc® Mounting Collars.
Put the lower complete denture in hot, but not boiling, water. Place
it in a pressure pot when available.

After final curing, remove any excess acrylic and finish the denture
base.
Exchange the Mounting Inserts for the final Novaloc® Retention
Inserts and insert the final overdenture into the patient’s mouth. For
details see brochure Basic Information on the Straumann® Novaloc®
Retentive System for Hybrid Dentures (490.115).

. Appendix B
.. Preparation for lab-side modification of an existing lower denture into an overdenture supported by Novaloc®
Abutments
If the lower complete denture’s fit is inadequate (poor adaptation to underlying tissue) after surgery and major adjustments
are necessary, indirect relining of the mandibular denture is necessary. This means that relining and insertion of Novaloc®
Matrix Housings incl. Mounting Inserts are performed by the dental technician immediately after border mold impres-
sion-taking. Lab-side relining has to be planned in advance with your dental technician.
Place a Novaloc® Forming/Fixing Matrix onto each Novaloc® Abut-
ment.
Hollow out the existing denture base in the areas of the Novaloc®
Forming/Fixing Matrices with handpiece and resin bur.
Use wash impression silicone to confirm adequate clearance be-
tween the Matrix Housings and the denture base.

Insert the lower complete denture into the patient’s mouth and
check the clearance. The Matrix Housings on the abutments should
not touch the denture base. Reconfirm space using wash impression
silicone. Adjust the denture base to seat passively in occlusion with-
out touching the Matrix Housings.
Prepare the lower complete denture for border mold impression
technique.
 Remove any undercuts from the denture base.
 Check for peripheral extensions and if necessary (optional) adjust
them with thermo-plastic materials (border molding).
 Dry the inner surface of the mandibular denture with alcohol and
apply the corresponding adhesive.
Take a reline impression.
Apply polyether impression material to the internal aspect of the
lower complete denture, and take a reline impression with the pa-
tient in occlusion.
