tread

English to Spanish Medical Medical: Dentistry
Gracias de antemano por su ayuda. Se trata de un manual sobre implantes dentales.

Application tip:
Turn the implant slightly to the left before insertion.
The ***tread*** just reaches into the pre-cut-of alveolus, and then follows the threads when turning clockwise.

correcto. Tread es la huella o "rosca" que queda hecha en el hueso y threads son las cuerdas del implante
JohnMcDove Apr 23, 2017:
Yes, I fully agree with Liz. Also in the context provided, it seems the most logical option. :-)

Having look at various sites, this could well be a typo for "thread".

rosca

I agree that "thread" is probably intended here.

It looks like the reference is to the thread of the screw of the implant fitting into the thread of the base of the implant.
