Please contact your local BIOMET 3i Sales Representative or visit us online at www.biomet3i.com to learn more. The 3i T3™ Implant is designed to deliver aesthetic results through tissue preservation. Contemporary hybrid surface design with multi-level topography; media-blasted on the threaded region and dual-acid etched on the collar region PRESERVATION BY DESIGN™ Optimized aesthetics with as little as 0.37mm of bone recession3 Designed to reduce microleakage through exacting interface tolerances and maximized clamping forces1,2 Seal integrity test was performed by BIOMET 3i July 2011 - June 2012. In order to test the implant systems, a dynamic- loading leakage test was developed and executed. The test set-up was adapted from ISO14801, Dentistry - Implants - Dynamic Fatigue Test for Endosseous Dental Implants. Five samples each of the BIOMET 3i and three competitive implant systems were evaluated. Bench test results are not necessarily indicative of clinical performance.
