Select the impression coping by matching the diameter of the healing abutment or select a diameter similar to the abutment that will be used.

Predict the diameter and type (Hex, Non-Hex) of the abutment to be used and select an impression coping that will be connected using a hand driver with hand force.

The Ø5.5 diameter (ITH5512) suits for anterior and posterior. ITH5516 suits anterior.

The Ø4.0 diameter can be used if adjacent teeth are nearby. When the vertical dimension is insufficient apply the short feature (12.0).

We recommend you to block out the driver hole of the impression coping. It is essential to take a periapical X-ray to verify the exactness of the impression coping connection.
