CONELOG PROGRESSIVE-LINE Surgical procedures

32 CONELOG ® PROGRESSIVE-LINE IMPLANT IMPLANT INSERTION AND POSITIONING The implant is inserted manually into the coronal section of the implant bed using the insertion tool. Then it can be turned manually with the wrench or with the angled hand piece (maximum speed of 15 rpmmust not be exceeded) clockwise carefully into the final position. Pay attention to the axial alignment of the implant bed. If the thread was cut in advance, the positions of the threaded ends in the cortical bone and on the implant must match. It is recommended to first rotate the insertion tool with the implant carefully to the left manually, until the thread socket can be felt. Then the implant is screwed in clockwise manually with the insertion tool. When reaching the planned insertion depth (see section on «form drilling»), one of the three grooves should face in a vestibular direction. If it was decided to set preparation depths for the implants individually by removing the depth stop during form drilling, this must be kept in mind when inserting the implant. It is possible to individually position implants vertically to match the drilling depth. Insertion of implant with a manual insertion tool Screw insertion of implant with manual insertion tool and wrench Manually screwed in implant Insertion of implant with a machine insertion tool Screw insertion of implant with a machine insertion tool and angled hand piece (max. 15 rpm) Machine screwed in implant NOTE If low primary stability is expected in a sinus lift procedure or in soft bone, but this method is nonetheless still selected, then we recommend assembly of the insertion aid short in place of the pre- mounted insertion post (see page 34). This is screw-retained as compared to the attached insertion post, and allows intraoperative corrections in positioning of the implant in all three spatial dimensions. SURGICAL PROCEDURE
