CAMLOG Vario SR Prosthetics Components

CAMLOG ® VARIO SR PROSTHETIC COMPONENTS INTRODUCTION Modern implant prosthetics is planned by working back from the desired therapy goal; this is referred to as «backward planning.» It applies particu- larly to pre-implantation augmentation procedures to restore sufficient bony structure to allow placement of implants in the optimal prosthetic position. Function, phonetics, and hygienic potential require prosthetically oriented implant positioning and dimensioning, which the dental technician defines on the basis of the wax-up/set-up. The prosthetic design and the required implant position(s) and axial alignment(s) are planned by the dentist and dental technician working closely together. This requires both to be fully informed of the treatment options. If implant positions (implants approximating the former tooth positions) cannot be implemented for a fixed denture for whatever reason – functional (implant loading, crown length), esthetic (soft tissue support) or hygienic – a removable denture must be planned. More information about planning the prosthetic restoration is available in the working instruction «Crown and bridge restorations with the CAMLOG ® Implant System», Art. No. J8000.0069.
