- References 6–10 discuss the Tapered Implant macrodesign, which is incorporated into the T3 Implant. References 10–13 discuss the Osseotite and/or NanoTite Implants’ dual acid-etched or DCD technology, which is incorporated into the T3 Implant. References 20–22 discuss PREVAIL® Implants with an integrated platform switching design, which is also incorporated into the T3 Implant.
Preservation Is Key To Aesthetics
T3 Implant is Designed to Deliver Aesthetic Results Through Tissue Preservation
- Contemporary Hybrid Surface: Provided by complex multi-surface topography
- Seal Integrity: Provided by a stable and tight implant/abutment interface
- Integrated Platform Switching: Provided by a medialized implant/abutment junction
The Clinical Challenge
T3 Short Implants in Areas with Minimal Bone Height
In areas with minimal bone height, providing implant treatment may require complex surgical procedures, such as:
- A sinus lift procedure in the maxilla
- Vertical ridge augmentation in the mandible due to the proximity to the mandibular nerve
Contemporary Hybrid Implant Design
- Primary Stability 6,7,8
Initial Bone-to-Implant Contact is a major contributor to the implant’s stability.9
- Osseointegration 10,11
In preclinical studies*, the T3 with DCD Surface demonstrated increased integration strength throughout the healing phase as compared to less complex surface topographies.11
- No Increased Peri-implantitis Risk 12,13
The T3 Implant utilizes the proven Osseotite® Surface technology at the coronal aspect of the implant. In a five-year study**, the dual acid-etched surface of the Osseotite Implant presented no increased risk of peri-implantitis or soft-tissue complications versus a machined surface.12
