CONELOG PROGRESSIVE-LINE Surgical procedures

22 CONELOG ® PROGRESSIVE-LINE IMPLANT FINAL FORM DRILLING The CONELOG ® PROGRESSIVE-LINE Implant Promote ® plus, is placed epicrestally. To do this, final formdrilling is performed without depth stop and to the upper edge of the first filled depth mark. If final form drilling is performed with the depth stop, the implant lies 0.4 mm supracrestal. The reusable depth stops can be used with replacement formdrills (delivered without depth stops). If the circular bone level is uneven, the depth stop rests on the highest point of the crest and thereby limits the insertion depth. If a deeper insertion is required for functional or esthetic reasons, the depth stop can be removed and form drilling can be continued in steps of 1 mm (watch for anatomic structures!). In this case, preparation is performed using the laser marks (black). The marks are arranged at intervals of 1.0 mm and are 0.4 mm in width. CAUTION The maximum apical extension length of the drill is 0.5 mm. The depth stops must be removed before cleaning the drills. The cleaned depth stops must be reattached before sterilization (see «Preparation instructions for the CAMLOG ® /CONELOG ® Implant System», Art. No. J8000.0032). The depth stops can be reordered individually.
