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.

Explanation:
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.
