Sealing and healing caps

In second-stage surgery it is necessary to protect the interior of the implants to prevent the growth of soft tissue. KL implants have grade-V titanium sealing caps without transmucosal height specific to each platform.

In one-stage surgery, healing caps of different heights are used to guide the healing of the soft tissue surrounding the implants. The KL prosthetic system provides the ability to use grade-V titanium healing caps of 3 and 5 mm transmucosal height.

Titanium protective caps are used to protect the abutments once they are permanently in place and when their removal is not necessary. They protect the abutment and screw entrance from bacterial plaque and food debris and prevent soft tissue growth around the implant/abutment assembly, maintaining easy access for subsequent insertion of the prosthesis or structure. KL implants have a protective cylinder made of grade V titanium to be used on multi-hex abutments.

It is recommended that the sealing and healing caps be placed manually. Sealing caps, healing caps and protective caps must be sterilized before use and are not reusable. It is important that the adapters are well preserved for use as a conveyor.
