Confidence beyond immediacy

  Posted by: Dental Design      15th November 2021

The Straumann® BLX bone level implant combines intelligent design and surface technology with high-performance materials. The result is highly predictable and reproducible outcomes you and your patients can trust.

The implant optimises dynamic bone management for effective redistribution of native bone and maximum primary stability – just what you need for confidence with immediate protocols. The implant is also fabricated with Roxolid® material and SLActive® surface, which have been shown to preserve the natural structures, boost vascularisation, [i] [ii]  enhance predictability with immediacy and reduce healing time.
