Pick-Up Impression Coping
The Pick-Up Impression Coping transfers the position of an
implant hex to a laboratory cast. The coping is picked up
inside the impression when the impression is removed from the
mouth. An open top impression tray is used with the Pick-Up
Impression Coping.
Note
• Pick-Up Impression Copings may
be difficult to use in limited, interarch distance spaces.
• Pick-Up Impression Copings are ideal for use when an
impression is made of multiple divergent implants.
Twist Lock™ Transfer
Coping
The Twist Lock Transfer Coping
transfers the position of an implant hex to the laboratory
cast. The coping is designed to stay on the implant in the
mouth when the impression is removed. The coping is then
removed from the implant and transferred into the impression.
A closed top impression tray is used with the Twist Lock
Transfer Coping.
Note
• Twist Lock Impression Copings
are ideal for use in limited, interarch distance spaces.
•
Twist Lock Impression Copings are contraindicated for use when
an impression is made of multiple divergent implants. There is
a risk of not being able to remove the impression tray from
the copings once the impression material has set.
