CAMLOG Hybrid Restorations

44 HYBRID RESTORATIONS WITH THE CAMLOG ® IMPLANT SYSTEM DUPLICATING THE WORKING CAST After the alignment (paralleling) of the duplication aids, undercut sections are blocked out with wax. When using the matrix, it must be covered with a thin coat of wax (0.3 mm) before duplication (bonding space). FABRICATING THE METAL REINFORCEMENT A metal reinforcement is waxed similarly to a telescopic frame work. The wax-up is checked using the silicone index. A perforation is provided for ex- cess cement. Soft tissue contacts are integrated in the free-end area and between the implants. After casting and trimming of the metal reinforcement, the fit is checked on the master cast. The matrices are placed on the CAMLOG ® ball abutments. The metal reinforcement must be seated tension-free on the matrices and the parallelism may not be changed.
