SYSTEM INFORMATION
CAMLOG

IMPRESSION POSTS PS, OPEN AND CLOSED TRAY
FOR PLATFORM SWITCHING
Due to the adaptation of the soft tissue over the implant shoulder, the use
of the CAMLOG
®
Healing caps PS necessitates the use of the CAMLOG
®
Impression post PS for Platform Switching.

HEALING CAPS PS FOR PLATFORM SWITCHING
The CAMLOG
®
Healing caps PS (cylindrical, wide body, bottleneck) are tapered in diameter
at the shoulder support making it possible to adapt soft tissue over the implant shoulder.
EFFECT OF THE PLATFORM SWITCHING DESIGN
Platform Switching option is used to support the hard and soft tissue in the peri-implant esthetic region. The
distance between the implant-abutment interface and the alveolar crest is to be increased to reduce the effect
of inflammatory cell infiltrates on bone resorption. The option of Platform Switching may only be used with
CAMLOG
®
Implants with K article numbers.
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.
