Camlog and Conelog® DRILLS
Camlog
Camlog implants and components are distributed through
Henry Schein®
in the USA.
SCREW-LINE implant drills are multi use (up to 20 times) latch type drills with a
V-Factor of up to 0.6mm, creating a osteotomy 0.6mm deeper than indicated.
Following the recommended drill protocol will place the installed implant
0.4mm above the crest of the bone. drills can be divided in to four groups
starting with a pilot and pre drill followed by form drills, cortical form
drills and bone taps. Camlog SCREW-LINE drills may be used for
Conelog® SCREW-LINE implants as well.
Fig. 1
Hubed pilot drills (Fig.1, left) are internally cooled 2mm diameter drills with four
depth markings at 9, 11, 13 and 16mm. The 9, 11 and 13mm depth markings are
etched on to the drill while the 16mm depth limiter is created by the bottom
of the hub. Depth stop bushings may be attached to the pilot drill to provide
a physical depth limiter at 9, 11 and 13mm.
Hubed pre drills (Fig.1, right) are internally cooled and tapered from 1.7mm at the
tip to 2.8mm at the hub of the drill. Depth markings are present at 9, 11,
13 and 16mm. The 16mm depth limiter is created by the bottom of the hub.
Depth stop bushings may be attached to the pilot drill to provide a
physical depth limiter at 9, 11 and 13mm.

Form drills (Fig.2) are externally cooled and machined with a four fluted cutting
surface. Each implant length requires its own form drill. The drills are
color coded (white 3.3, yellow 3.8, red 4.3, blue 5.0, green 6.0) to
indicate the osteotomy diameter in addition of being inscribed with the
drill diameter and length.
Fig. 3
Three depth markers (Fig.3, left) at the base of the drill are
spaced 1mm apart and each depth marker is 0.4mm wide. A osteotomy depth
drilled to the lower edge of the first depth mark will leave the implant
0.4mm above the crest of the bone. Increasing the depth to the upper edge
of the depth mark will place the implant flush with the crest of the bone.
Depth stop bushings (Fig.3, right) may be attached to the form drills to provide a
physical depth limiter coinciding with the lower edge of the first depth
marker. Bushings are color coded and drill diameter specific.

Cortical drills (Fig.4) are required in
D1 bone to effect a proper osteotomy
diameter. Five externally cooled drills, one for each implant diameter are
produced for SCREW-LINE implants. Each drill is machined with four cutting
flutes and depth markings at 9, 11, 13 and 16mm. Drills are color coded to
indicate the corresponding implant diameter. A white ring signals the 3.3mm
platform, yellow 3.8, red 4.3, blue 5.0 and green indicates a 6.0mm implant
diameter.
Fig. 5
Bone taps (Fig.5) are recommended in D1 and D2 type bone. Each implant diameter
requires its own tap drill. Tap drills are driven in to the osteotomy
site with a surgical motor directly at 15 rpm or with the Camlog
torque wrench. Although utilizing the torque wrench mandates the use of a
tap drill adapter to connect the tap drill to the torque wrench. The
limit for insertion of the tap drills is the upper edge of the cutting
blade. Drills are color coded to indicate the corresponding implant diameter.
A white ring signals the 3.3mm platform, yellow 3.8, red 4.3, blue 5.0 and
green indicates a 6.0mm implant diameter.

Camlog SCREW-LINE drills may be used for Conelog®
SCREW-LINE implants as well.
