The Alfa Gate Healing Cap Ø4.5 RC is designed to facilitate optimal soft tissue healing and maintain the access to the implant during the integration period. Engineered specifically for the Regular Conical (RC) platform, these caps feature the high-precision 11° Morse taper connection, which ensures superior stability and creates a tight bacterial seal to protect the implant's internal interface.

3. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is the recommended torque for RC Healing Caps? These caps should only be tightened manually using a 1.25mm hand driver to a light finger-tightness of 5–10 Ncm. Do not use a mechanical torque wrench.
2. When should I choose the Ø4.5mm cap over the Wide Ø6.3mm version? The Ø4.5mm cap is the standard choice for premolars and anterior teeth where space is limited. The Ø6.3mm wide version is generally reserved for larger molars.
3. Is it possible to reuse these caps? While titanium is durable, healing caps are typically intended for single-patient use to maintain the integrity of the 11° conical seal and ensure maximum clinical hygiene.
