Body design versus platform

A distinction worth grasping

Camlog separates two things that patients often merge. The platformCAMLOG or CONELOG, is the connection at the top, and it decides which abutments and crowns can ever be fitted. The body designSCREW-LINE or PROGRESSIVE-LINE, is the shape of the part buried in bone, and it affects how the implant grips during surgery and healing.

For your long-term records, the platform is the critical detail. The body design matters at the moment of surgery; the platform matters for the rest of the implant's life.

What our sources support

Being straight about the limits here

Camlog's public catalogues for its titanium range are parts listings, article numbers, dimensions and component tables, rather than clinical or design documents. They establish that PROGRESSIVE-LINE exists as a documented body design within the range, but they do not set out its design rationale or clinical positioning, and we are not going to invent one.

If PROGRESSIVE-LINE has been proposed for you, ask your dentist directly what it does differently from SCREW-LINE in your bone. That is a legitimate question with a real clinical answer, and your dentist is the right person to give it.

Questions worth asking your dentist

  1. What does PROGRESSIVE-LINE do differently from SCREW-LINE in my bone?
  2. Which platform is it built on, CAMLOG or CONELOG?
  3. Is my bone quality the reason you are choosing this body design?
  4. What diameter and length are you planning?
  5. Are components readily available in Canada for this platform?
  6. Will you record the platform, body design and reference number in writing?
