exhibitors10 ICOI Summer Symposium — August 15, 2015 By DENTSPLY Implants Staff n It is well-documented that crestal bone resorbs after tooth extraction or tooth loss. Often resorption is pro- nounced on the buccal side, resulting in a lingual-to-buccal sloped ridge. This situation occurs even if a stand- ard implant is immediately placed in the extraction socket. Because bone-to-implant support is three-dimensional, it is important to have marginal bone support around the entire implant. Preserving the buccal and lingual marginal bone in a sloped ridge situation will also positively influence mesial and distal marginalbonelevels,whichoptimizes soft-tissue esthetics. The OsseoSpeed Profile EV is a unique* implant specially designed to follow the existing bone in sloped ridge situations, maintaining soft- tissue esthetics and helping to reduce the need for bone augmentation, DENTSPLY asserts. Offering 360-degree bone preservation even in sloped ridge situations Ad The OsseoSpeed Profile EV offers a number of features, according to the company. •Flexibilitythroughawiderangeof implant options: Available in straight and conical implant designs in 8–17 mm lengths. • Simplicity of a one-position-only* placement of all indexed components: The unique one-position-only place- ment for ATLANTIS patient-specific abutments and indexed prefabricated abutments can make the treatment procedure simple and predictable. • Self-guiding* impression compo- nents for an accurate and predictable workflow: This design provides a time- efficient installation procedure and a predictable workflow between the clinician and dental technician. • Supported by a full range of dig- ital solutions: Digital solutions avail- able from the planning to the final restoration, offering the possibility of working with a completely digital workflow.
