CLOSED-TRAY IMPRESSION-TAKING METHOD
IMPRESSION-TAKING
Impression-taking of the CONELOG
®
implants is possible with impression
posts, open or closed tray. All impression-taking components are color-
coded based on the implant diameter. High-precision components ensure
correct transfer of the intraoral situation.
The CONELOG
®
impression posts do not lock into the cone of the
CONELOG
®
implants, but lie on the implant shoulder. Thus, a
vertical offset is prevented when taking the impression.
The antirotational mechanism is ensured by the CONELOG
®
groove/cam
connection.
OPEN-TRAY IMPRESSION-TAKING METHOD
A prefabricated impression tray can be used for the closed-tray impression-
taking method. After the impression post has been inserted correctly, the
fixing screw protrudes approximately 2 mm from the post. After tightening
the screw, it sits flush with the upper edge. This allows the user to visually
check that the impression post is correctly seated on the implant.
ALL ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE
• The diameters of the impression posts are smaller than those of the
healing caps for easier insertion and protection of the gingiva
• No vertical offset as the impression posts sit on the implant shoulder and
do not engage with the cone of the implant
The open-tray impression-taking method requires a custom-made
impression tray that is perforated for the protrusion of the fixing screw
extending from the implant axis. The fixing screw is secured in the
CONELOG
®
impression post with an O-ring and must only be tightened by
hand using the screwdriver, hex, both in the CONELOG
®
implant as well
as in the CONELOG
®
lab analog.
The fixing screw is equipped with a predetermined breaking point. If space
limitations are encountered, it can be shortened extraorally by 3.0 mm by
breaking it off with a screwdriver, hex.
