4 | CAMLOG ® Product catalog 2019 CAMLOG ® TUBE-IN-TUBE ® IMPLANT-ABUTMENT CONNECTION The very heart of the CAMLOG ® Implant System is the Tube-in-Tube ® Implant-abutment connection. The special geometric principle with the three short cams of the abutments, together with the precision of the connection, ensure optimal distribution of force and torque between the individual components. The CAMLOG ® Implant-abutment connection is predomi- nantly form-fitting and was biomechanically optimized by applying elaborate finite element analyses. This has proven itself over many years and in several million implant insertions. The groove/cam geometry makes the system distinctive. The CAMLOG ® Tube-in-Tube ® Connection is a 5.4 mm deep implant- abutment connection with antirotational locking mechanism. The three symmetrically arranged grooves are located in the 1.9 mm deep cylindrical drill hole in the coronal region. This region leads apically to an upper thread. This is followed by a thinner and longish cylindrical threaded bore. The abutment screw of the two-piece abutment engages in this lower inner thread. The CAMLOG ® Tube-in-Tube ® Connection has undergone extensive scientific studies and achieved above average good results for tightness and precision fit.

With the CAMLOG ® Im- plants, the insertion tools include markings that correspond to the three grooves of the implant inner configuration. PROMOTE ® SURFACE CAMLOG ® Implants are available with the abrasive-blasted, acid-etched Promote ® Surface. The surface is based on current scientific knowledge and supports rapid osseointegration. Scientific results from studies with cell cultures, osteohistology and in pull-out trials illustrate this impressively. PRODUCTION PRECISION The inner and outer geometry of the CAMLOG ® 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 Tube-in-Tube ® Implant-abutment connection thus ensures a very precise, stable and rotation-locked connection to the prosthetic components.
