The On1 Base connects to the implantatsurgeryandthenremainsinplacethrough- outthehealingprocess,prostheticworkandthenthe lifetime of the restoration. This leaves the soft tissue undisturbed without compromising on restorative flexibility,leavingthebiologicalsealitcreatesinplace foroptimisedhealing.AstheOn1Baseisseatedatim- plant placement, the concept offers the surgeon peace of mind that only precision-engineered Nobel Biocare components are used with the implant, re- moving risks associated with ill-fitting third-party abutments. It also eliminates the risk that non-bio- compatible,uncleanorreusedcomponentscomeinto contact with the soft tissue. Nobel Biocare also presented the evolution of NobelProcera. This includes the launch of the new NobelProcera Crown, the first in a series of options in a new high-translucency multilayered full-contour zirconiamaterial.Thisnewmaterialpossessesexcep- tionalproperties,combininghighstrengthanddura- bility with excellent aesthetics. The multilayered na- ture of the restorations and the realistic occlusal detail mirror the appearance of a natural tooth and helpsavetime,asthetechnicianneedonlyapplyfinal touches before delivery to the dentist. Advancing edentulous solutions Nobel Biocare is committed to further advancing the standard of care for edentulous patients. Nobel- Speedy, the original and widely documented implant fortheAll-on-4®treatmentconcept,isnowavailable in more lengths and diameters for increased surgical flexibility. With new shorter 7 mm, longer 20, 22 and 25 mm implants and a wider 5.0 mm implant variant, this expanded range is designed to further help clini- ciansutiliseagraftlessapproachandachievecortical anchorage where bone quality and quantity are lim- ited. The new Multi-unit Abutment Plus1 is an en- hancement of the Nobel Biocare Multi-unit Abut- ment. It is designed to significantly reduce the chair time required to perform a denture conversion—a procedure commonly used for the All-on-4® treat- ment concept. Building on 25 years of success with Nobel Biocare’s zygomatic implants, the new Nobel- Zygoma implant launched at the event provides greater surgical and prosthetic flexibility when treat- ing severe maxillary resorption without grafting. Comprehensive regenerative assortment Underthebrandcreos,NobelBiocareoffersanout- standing regenerative solutions portfolio, which is now expanded further with creos xenogain, a depro- teinised bovine bone mineral matrix for guided bone and guided tissue regeneration procedures. Unique processing methods remove the bovine proteins and lipids.2,3 The natural bone matrix characterised by mi- cro-andinterconnectedmacroporestructuresispre- served.2,3 Bonesubstitutesinthecreosxenogainrange have a slow resorption rate and act as a long-lasting scaffold, maintaining space for bone regeneration.4 Thenewcreosxenogainbiomaterialsbuildonthesuc- cess of the non-cross-linked resorbable collagen membrane creos xenoprotect, which is scientifically proventobethestrongestmembranewhenhydrated5 andoffersexcellentvascularisationbehaviourandtis- sue compatibility as well as a prolonged protection of the graft site.6 An extensive range of allogenic creos regenerative solutions is also available.7 Hans Geiselhöringer, President, Nobel Biocare and Dental Imaging, said: “The innovations we are pre- sentingattheNobelBiocareGlobalSymposium2016 have all been created to address the specific needs of today’sdentalprofessionalsastheystrivetoimprove care for patients.”_ contact Nobel Biocare Services AG P.O.
