Titan Implants’ Implant Locator Pin is a straight threaded pin with a serrated handle designed for several practical uses: 

At times, it may be difficult to insert an impression coping or abutment intraorally due to impaired visibility or access. The implant locator is easier to screw into the implant. Once inserted, by hand, the impression coping or abutment will slide over the pin and lock in place because of the snug fit of the head. Then the implant locator pin is removed and replaced by the appropriate screw.

The implant locator pin can be used to check for parallelism and positioning of the implants intraorally. This can be done in the lab too. In the lab, the implant locator pin is convenient for custom abutment fabrication. Simple slide the plastic sleeve down the implant locator pin and proceed to wax-up to the appropriate gingival height. The ease of sliding the abutment on and off saves time and simplifies lab work. (This can be actually done in the mouth)

The implant locator pin comes in three different lengths and different threads to match various manufacturers.

Titan Implant Locator Pin (M2-ILP-20)

Note*Abutment available in locking only

Titan’s Straight Locking Implant Abutments are machined with careful precision, which ensures a consistent and accurate fit into the implant.

This fit helps eliminate micro-movement. Titan’s abutments carry a wide range of emergence profiles which

contribute to a natural restoration.

Horizontal grooves assist in height measurements and adjustments, and also significantly increases cement retention while still allowing retrievability.

Different cuff heights from 1.0mm to 5.5mm in 1/2mm increments. (Titan EXCLUSIVE)

 Choosing Proper Abutment Profile Diameters

Measure the available space between the proximal surfaces of the teeth adjacent to the

edentulous area.

Subtract two millimeters since it is necessary to have at least one millimeter between the abutment flare and the adjacent root surface. This will give you the maximum abutment diameter for the available space.

If more than 1mm is available on each side choose a larger Emergence Profile diameter. There are three levels of Emergence profile diameters for each abutment system: level 1 (Emergence Profile), level 2, and level 3. (See the chart)

Choosing the Proper Collar Height

Measure the distance between the implant platform and the crest of the gingival on the lingual and the buccal. Choose the highest number. Note: Usually the buccal is the

highest number. Subtract ½ or 1mm from this number. This will ensure that the collar is slightly below the crest of the gingiva. Choose the closest collar height from the chart.

If the collar height is different between the buccal and lingual and you wish to follow the

contour of the gingiva, modify the collar appropriately.

TIP: The best results are obtained taking a tissue model impression of the implant using a

transfer coping. The lab can then easily choose and modify the proper abutment for the available space.
