Thanks to Straumann's continuous research, they offer the widest range of support for those with missing teeth. They have now reached a point where they can carry this out even without bone augmentation, if necessary.

Bone loss is not an obstacle to dental implantation

Straumann’s new 4mm short implant, developed for patients with bone deficiency, has been proving for the past five years that there is no longer any need for invasive surgery. During clinical trials In 94% cases, it performed just as flawlessly as its counterpart, which was three times as long.

Bone grafting, sinus lift supplemented with own membrane

This result was achieved thanks to Roxolid®’s strong hold and its bonding with the bones. We can therefore state that there are cases where Bone grafting is no longer necessary.

 

 

What makes the material and surface of Straumann implants special?

The Straumann Roxolid® implant is made from an alloy of 15% zirconium and 85% titanium, which, compared to conventional titanium implants, one and a half times as strong ensures durability, which is a significant factor when it comes to everyday use.

To shorten the healing time, the unique SLActive implants have a hydrophilic surface, which binds to water, thus promoting bone thickening for a secure hold.

Using this method It takes just one month from the implant being fitted to the final tooth It takes some time, whereas with bone grafting and conventional implants, the process takes half a year.

How does the implantation proceed?

After we have taken a 3D X-ray of your teeth, we will determine the bone height of the area to be treated. If this is less than 8-10 mm, you will require bone grafting to replace your tooth.

With the new method, the treatment is the same as with any other implant placement. By opting for the new, short implant, you will no longer have to worry about the surgery caused by bone grafting and the months of waiting.

When is it worth deciding on an implant?

With 30 years of experience, Straumann has created a professional-quality implant that has achieved the highest success rate globally, with a total of 8 million happy patients, thanks to its high resistance and unique surface.

If you are looking for a dental restoration that replicates the natural appearance of your original teeth as faithfully as possible, choose Straumann Roxolid®. The path to success begins with a beautiful smile.
