CONELOG SCREW-LINE surgical procedures

34 CONELOG ® SCREW-LINE IMPLANT SURGICAL PROCEDURE The following is to be observed during implantation: Groove markings are applied to the insertion tool and the insertion post which correspond to the three grooves of the implant-abutment connection. These permit a check of the groove positions during the insertion and their orientation as required for the prosthesis. If the dental technician has not indicated the groove position, a vestibular orientation is advantageous in most cases since the angle of angulated abutments originates at a groove. After successful checking of the implantation depth (see section “Form dril- ling”) as well as the position of the grooves (see above), the insertion post can be pulled from the implant using the torque wrench or with the angled hand piece. Attention should be paid to sufficient primary stability of the implant. Prior to removal, ensure sufficient mating between the insertion tool and the insertion post with slight axial pressure on the insertion tool. If the primary stability is not sufficient, the implant can be stabilized with a suitable instrument during extraction of the insertion post. NOTE Keep in mind during positioning of the grooves that turning to the next groove position (120°) will cause the screw implant to be inserted about 0.2 mm deeper.
