The Cap Tool is used to place the healing cap and emergence profiler if desired. Cap Tools come in two lengths for different locations in the mouth. The cap tool features a large rounded head for easy holding and threading of the shaft into the healing cap. A floss groove for safe retrieval if unintentionally dropped into the mouth. And a micro-threaded end that screws into and out of the healing cap that that been pressure fit into the hex recess of the implant. In the subsequent removal of the pressure fit healing cap, be sure to slightly turn the cap clockwise 1/8 turn for easy removal rather than just straight out. Use the floss! The healing cap is placed into and through the emergence profile and then pressure fit into the hex recess of the implant thereby holding the profile securely to the implant.
