The Importance of Dental Implants with Different Designs

No two patients are the same, and when it comes to dental implants, oral health professionals must consider the patient's bone density, the location of the implant, and spacing. So, it makes sense that you would need various dental implants on hand to meet those needs. In fact, studies show that dental implant design can affect marginal bone loss, probing depth, and overall success rates.?

According to research published by Implant Dentistry, “modifications in implant body design and implant surfaces have been suggested to increase the success in poor quality bone by, hypothetically, gaining better anchorage and providing more surface area of load to decrease stress to the softer bone types.” This study also finds that surface condition can influence osseointegration, and implant design can affect stability as well as the bone-implant interface following occlusal loading.

While you can’t control your patient’s bone volume or quality, you can control the implant design and surface condition that you use to replace their missing teeth. SGS Dental provides a high-quality Swiss-made product, affordable prices, and well-trained professionals to support our partners around the world.?

Our Dental Implants

Your patients deserve the best. That’s why SGS Dental offers dental implants of varying sizes, thread designs, body shapes, and connections. We consider how implant thread design, mechanical properties of the implant, and the geometry of the implant affect osseointegration and overall long-term success. This ensures every patient receives a dental implant that meets their unique needs.?

We offer various types of dental implants that include slightly aggressive, aggressive, and densely aggressive threading to benefit different types of bone, spacing issues, and locations in the mouth.

1. P1: shorter pitch implant, designed for dense bone
2. P7: aggressive implant, designed for soft bone and immediate placement/loading
3. P5: hybrid design designed for all bone types and immediate placement/loading; available in bone level and tissue level (our newest line)

Each of these implants can be combined with various types of abutments and attachments to create the most effective solution for your patients.??

Here’s what one of our partners, Dr. Iyman E, has to say about our dental implant system:?

“SGS implants have become my go-to implant system. The implants come in a multitude of sizes not found in most systems as well as different body shapes and thread designs depending on bone density. The primary stability of these implants is phenomenal. The conical platform (they have a hex platform as well) and platform switching results in excellent crestal bone levels even as the implant ages. The customer service is top-notch. Especially David and Michael who are there for you whenever you need them and can always get you whatever implants or prosthetic parts within a day if necessary. 5 stars all the way. Keep up the great work SGS!”
