All programmes can be easily set up in just one user level, and the displayed values can bemodified.Thesettingsareclearlyvisibleon the large display. The im- plantologist can there- fore concentrate on the essential factor: the pa- tient.

The lightweight motor and the ergonomi- cally shaped W&H contra-angle handpieces are perfectly balanced in the user’s hand. The integrated automatic thread-cutting function supports the implantologist in placingimplantsinhardbone.Cutting a thread before screwing in the im- plant prevents an excessive com- pression of the bone and promotes stress-free healing of the implant.

The unique Dual Stability Mechanism (DSM) of the new implant combines the benefits of high primary stability with accelerated osseointegration. The acrostructure and microstructure of C1 and its unique differential drilling method shorten the time between im- mediate mechanical primary stability and biological secondary stability. For the C1 implant, MIS developed special in- struments that facilitate rapid,reliable insertion. The unique 3-in-1 key system minimises the number of instruments and maximises the level of flexibility. The combination pack of the C1 contains a single- use final drill, a cover screw, a healing cap with a height of 4 mm, and a temporary cylinder. The ergonomic, circular design of the innovative C1 surgical kit follows surgical procedure and drilling sequence.Thekitcontainsasetofthemostlyused pilot drills.
