Check the screw length at the corresponding length
measuring module of the container: the screw length is
determined at the tip of the screw.
Notice
Different length measuring modules are available for the IMF
screws M2-5248.xx and M2-5249.xx. Ensure that the screws
are checked at the corresponding length measuring module.
Explantation of MODUS 2
IMF Implants
For the explantation of MODUS 2 IMF screws, use the
appropriate screwdrivers.
For removal of the MODUS 2 titanium arch bar, conventional
wire cutters and forceps can be used.
Notice
Only original MODUS 2 instruments are recommended for
the explantation of MODUS 2 IMF screws.
Notice
The screw will not hold without axial pressure!
Vertically extract the screw from the compartment.
Notice
Picking up the screw repeatedly may lead to permanent
deformation of the self-retaining area of the HexaDrive inside
the screw head. Therefore, the screw may no longer be able
to be picked up correctly. In this case, a new screw has to be
used.
To remove the screws from the implant container, insert the
appropriately color-coded screwdriver blade perpendicularly
into the screw head of the desired screw and pick up the
screw with axial pressure.
