Ball
attachments
|
Attachment used to increase retention of partial overdentures, supported on implants.
|
Barrier membrane
|
A fully resorbable and adaptable cell occlusive
barrier used in guided bone regeneration procedures in the
area of dental implants, bone defects and ridge
augmentations.
|
Bone grafting
|
The use of bone substitute materials for
augmentation of large or small defects and for socket
preservation.
|
Bone substitute
|

only a scaffold for formation of new bone
|
Bridge
|

plastic cap to take the impression.
|
Complete
denture
|
A complete set of dentures replacing the teeth in
an edentulous jaw, either mandibular or maxilla.
|
Conical connection
|
Ensures a secure fit between the abutment and

resorption..
|
Crown
|
Part of the restoration
that appears as a natural tooth.
|
Dental Implant
|
A dental implant is a
titanium screw that can replace the root
of a tooth and is used to support one or

virtual implant planning.
|
implant-supportedbridge
|
A bridge that is
supported solely by dental implants fixed in the
jawbone.
|
Impression coping
|
Enables simple and accurate restoration
planning for single tooth, bridge or a full denture;
using screw retained or press fit components. |
Internal hex. connection
|
Allows a secure fit between the implant and the
abutment, minimizing micro-movements and reducing bone
resorption. |
Locator attachment
|
Used for anchoring for implant-retained
overdentures |
Open tray procedure
|
Enables the guide pin to protrude through
the impression tray. |
Osseointegration
|
The bone growth integration
with the dental implant. |
OT-Equator
|
Low profile overdenture
and removable denture attachments. |
Overdenture
|
A removable full
denture, or complete set of replacement teeth, that is
placed on top of dental implants |
Partial

Restoration
|
The
process of partially or fully reconstructing a missing

Screw retained restorations
|
The procedure allows for easy removal and
upholding of abutments during routine checkups.
|
Surface Treatment
|
Used to increase the implant surface area, micro
and nano-structures, by sand-blasting and acid etching,
and eliminating various surface contaminants.
|
Surgical kit
|
Drills and instruments designed to assist with a
wide range of implant placement procedures.
|
