SYSTEM INFORMATION
CONELOG
®
BALL, LOCATOR
®
AND STRAIGHT BAR ABUTMENTS
Ball, Locator
®
and straight bar abutments are available for the CONELOG
®
Implant System. These differ from the abutments in the apical region
through different connection designs. Ball, Locator
®
and straight bar
abutments are manufactured as single pieces with a thread in the apical
region which engages with the inner thread of the CONELOG
®
Implant.
These abutments are screwed into the CONELOG
®
Implant using the
corresponding insertion tools.
PRODUCTION PRECISION
The inner and outer geometry of the CONELOG
®
Implants and abutments are rotary machined for the
most part. The tolerances can therefore be kept very
low. The result is excellent part precision without
impacting the material structure. The CONELOG
®
Implant-abutment connection thus ensures a very
precise, stable and rotation-locked connection to the
prosthetic components.

EFFECT OF THE PLATFORM SWITCHING DESIGN
The CONELOG
®
Implant System offers integrated Platform Switching as the implant
shoulder is not covered by the healing caps and abutments. Platform Switching option is
used to support the hard and soft tissue in the peri-implant esthetic region. The distance
between the implant-abutment interface and the alveolar crest is increased and thereby
reduces the effect of inflammatory cell infiltration with concomitant bone resorption.
