38 implants 4 2016 manufacturer news Straumann “Lifetime+ Guarantee” for Roxolid® implants Roxolid® —the dental implant material for superi- or strength and more indications—has brought a new level of confidence to implant dentistry that enables Straumann to offer an industry-lead- ing guarantee. Roxolid® by Straumann has been specifically designed for use in dental implan- tology. This unique material combines excellent osseointegrative properties with high mechanical strength. Roxolid® leads to increased mechanical resistance and up to 21 % higher fatigue strength compared to titanium implants. Straumann’s standard Lifetime Guarantee covers the replace- ment of the implant in the rare event of breakage and is valid for the patient’s lifetime. Few manu- facturers offer this level of guarantee. For Roxolid® implants, Straumann is extending this lifetime guarantee to include a monetary contribution to the follow-up treatment costs. Straumann has in- vested years of expertise, scientific research and clinical experience in perfecting the design and material properties of its implants and abutments. Now, it is the first leading dental implant manufac- turer to offer a lifetime guarantee covering both the product and a contribution to the treatment costs. Learn more here: http://ow.ly/4mVWv7. Institut Straumann AG Peter-Merian-Weg 12 4002 Basel, Switzerland www.straumann.com Bioimplon Hypro-Sorb® X Hypro-Sorb® X is a root-shaped cone of pure, crystalline, bovine Atelo-Collagen Type I. It is indicated to stop the bleeding after tooth extraction and to help preserve the alveolar ridge. The Hypro-Sorb® X cone is made of 99.9 % Atelo-Collagen Type I, a modified collagen from which immunogenic telopep- tides have been biochemically eliminated. This ensures highest biocompatibility and safety. Thanks to our lyophilisation processing technol- ogy, the natural collagen structure with all its bioactive elements is preserved in the cones without alteration. This unique product has an approved bacteriostatic effect and is strong- ly hydrophilic. All these advantages make Hypro-Sorb® X a powerful haemostatic which ensures accelerated wound healing, optimal cell adhesion, blood absorption and excellent handling. Bioimplon GmbH Friedrich-List-Str. 27 35398 Gießen, Germany www.bioimplon.de We introduced our new Planmeca Minute video series earlier this year. These short and visually appealing videos have been well received, with each one highlighting a specific feature or prod- uct from the Planmeca portfolio. The newest Planmeca Minute video focuses on our new Planmeca Creo™ 3-D printer, which has been designed for creating dental models and surgical guides from medically approved materials with true precision and efficiency. Take a look! In the near future, Planmeca Creo will also sup- port the creation of other dental objects of in- tricate detail, such as dental splints, temporary fillings, and orthodontic models. The 3-D printer uses Digital Light Processing (DLP) technology to create objects out of UV curable resin. It has its own dedicated soft- ware, which is included as part of all deliveries. Planmeca Creo is already available for orders— the first deliveries will take place soon.
