CAMLOG Hybrid Restorations

19 HYBRID RESTORATIONS WITH THE CAMLOG ® IMPLANT SYSTEM OPTION B. BITE REGISTRATION WITH SPLINTED BITE REGISTER After taking the impression and fabricating the cast, fix the CAMLOG ® bite registration posts in the lab analog and fabricate a bite register splinted with the posts on the working cast. Coat and connect the bite registration posts with a suitable plastic. Do not cover the fixing screws. TIP: To avoid distortion stress with larger restorations (edentulous jaw, large gaps), we recommend disconnecting the register between the implant pillars and then reconnecting in the mouth with suitable plastic after atta- ching to the implants. Remove the bite register, the bite registration caps and the bite registration posts (by loosening the fixing screws) and give all to the dental laboratory. Screw in the bite registration posts into the color-coded lab analogs in the cast and mount the bite registration caps in the final position. Place the bite registration on the caps. Connect the bite registration to the opposing jaw cast and mount the casts in an articulator. TIP: If bite registration posts cannot be used due to limited space condi- tions (to prevent bite elevation), a healing cap, cylindrical, height 6.0 mm, may be used. Record the diameter, the position, and the height of the healing cap on the information work sheet and deliver it with the corres- ponding healing cap to the dental laboratory.
