CAMLOG SCREW-LINE Surgical procedure

31 CAMLOG ® SCREW-LINE IMPLANT PICKING UP THE INSERTION POST WITH THE MANUAL INSERTION TOOL The front part of the implant holder is held between two fin- gers and the insertion tool is mounted into the insertion post by applying pressure. This ensures a secure seat of the in- sertion tool in the insertion post. Contamination from non-sterile instruments must be avoided. The three groove markings on the head of the insertion post serve easy picking up of the post with the insertion tool, which is also fitted with the corresponding three markings. Furthermore, the three groove markings on the insertion tool and on the insertion post relate to the groove position of the implant-abutment connection. The further steps for removing the implant are as follows: • Hold the implant holder at the rear section (see arrows in illustration) and press together to release the lock on the implant holder and thus release the implant; • Loosen the insertion post with a slight twist (approx. 30° clockwise with the insertion tool); • Lift out insertion post in upward direction (do not tilt). NOTE It should be noted that picking up the insertion post with the insertion tool is done by applying slight pressure. This ensures secure retention of the insertion post in the insertion tool. 30° Observe the correct alignment during the pick-up process!
