  • Straumann Dental Implant System


    Overview:

    Reviewed by: Dr. Kristen Dority

    Implant system with a proven 25-year reliability. Usually only one surgical procedure is necessary and fabrication of replacement teeth can begin after six to 12 weeks of healing.

    Detailed Information:
    Straumann implant system offers a unique one-stage brand of implants. The system is also referred to as ITI Straumann implants, and the technology emerged from one of Europe's leading metallurgical research centers.

    The ITI Straumann implant system is unlike any other system in that it is one-stage and requires only one surgical procedure. Implants are made of commercially pure titanium which ensures complete integration with the bone. This system of implanting allows for load-bearing permanent crowns to be placed as early as six weeks instead of the four to six month wait implant brands that have been on market for decades require.

    Clinical studies have demonstrated that Straumann implants can be used predictably with patients who are either partially or completely without teeth.

    Additionally, animal and microscopic studies have documented the scientific basis for the integration of Straumann implants with bone, connective tissue and epithelium.

    As do other implant brands, Straumann offers a 10-year guarantee on its technology providing patients have cared for their implants as directed by their specialists.
