SUMMARY
Design changes of the CAMLOG
®
and CONELOG
®
Implant Systems
have systematically been tested pre-clinically. The enlargement
of the coarse neck area of SCREW-LINE implants (Promote
®
plus design) has been shown to improve the osseointegration.
Bacterial microleakage does not seem to play a role in marginal
bone resorption around CAMLOG
®
implants. Studies on the
concept of platform switching have demonstrated successful
osseointegration of both standard and platform-switched im-
plants. Repeated abutment dis- and reconnection during the
healing phase may impair the stability of the hard and soft
tissue both with titanium and ZrO
2
abutments. Vertical loading
due to removal of cement-retained restorations does not impair
implant stability when the implants are well osseointegrated.
