Shortest Implants – Longest History. Think Short! According to the 11th European Consensus Confer- ence (EuCC) 2016 in Cologne, provided the specific treatment parameters are observed, the use of short, angulated or diameter-reduced implants in sites with reduced bone volume can be a reliable treatment option, given the risks associated with the use of standard-dimension implants in combination with augmentation procedures.

It is the first product to permanently create bone fixation on ceramic im- plants. SurfLink® is the exclusively chosen surface treatment by MIS Implants Technologies for their Titanium implants. Ceramic material treated with SurfLink® in vitro and in vivo showed a promotion of bone cell proliferation and in biofilm tests a substantial reduction in biofilm adhesion to the sur- face was observed. SurfLink® characteristics Hydrophilicity: SurfLink® is inherently hydrophilic. This enables quick cell adhesion and fast bone matrix formation. Osteoconductivity: SurfLink® increased new bone formation (+ 44 %) as early as two weeks after implantation in a sheep study. Implant fixation: after only two weeks, SurfLink® showed a 32 % increased implant fixation compared to the control. Chemical bonding: Torque testing after 52 weeks in sheep showed that bone fixation to the treated implant surface is stronger than bone, leaving a thin layer of mineralised bone on the implant surface. In addition, the production of SurfLink® treated implants has been validated. Very little, if any, extra equipment is necessary for most manufacturers. No specially trained personnel are needed and all standard logistics can be used. SurfLink® is now available to a select number of ceramic dental implant manufac- turers via a license and supply agreement.
