CAMLOG Hybrid Restorations

57 HYBRID RESTORATIONS WITH THE CAMLOG ® IMPLANT SYSTEM CAST FABRICATION After taking the impression, the cast is fabricated using Locator ® analogs, which are available in two sizes. The analogs are selected based on the CAMLOG ® Locator ® abutments used. NOTE The CAMLOG ® Locator ® abutment diameters used are not apparent in the impression and must be communicated to the laboratory to select the Locator ® analogs. The Locator ® analogs designed for the corresponding implant diameters are placed in the Locator ® impression caps in the impression. Pay attention to the proper seating of the analogs. The cast is then fabricated with suitable model material. FABRICATING THE FULL DENTURE After fabricating the cast, the white block out spacers included in the Locator ® male processing packages are pulled over the functional areas of the Locator ® analogs to prevent acrylic from getting into the titanium housings. The titanium housing with the black processing replacement male is placed on each analog over the previously placed block out spacer until the pres- sure point is reached. The titanium housing is attached by the black processing replacement male and the resilience of the denture determined. CAUTION Undercuts between the titanium housings and the surrounding tissue not covered by the block out spacers must be blocked out. Acrylic must not get into the titanium housing during fabrication! The full denture can now be fabricated in the conventional technology. SELECTING THE LOCATOR ® ANALOG Locator ® impression cap Art.
