manufacturer news | TAV Dental Ceramic Injection Molding technology TAV Dental, a division of TAV Medical, is a family-owned company with four decades of experience in the medical devices market. The company focuses on the development, manufacturing and market- ing of zirconia dental implants and prosthetic parts, and is seeking to improve dental implant treatments by making zirconia dental im- plants common worldwide. TAV Zirconia implants are the result of years of profound research and development process with exceptional focus on the safety and performance of the implants. The implants are manufactured using the advanced Ceramic Injection Molding (CIM) technology. This technology offers great advantages in terms of part design, mechanical properties and manufacturing capabilities. TAV Dental offers both one-piece and two-piece zirconia implants. Thereby, the two-piece implant-abutment connection is done by screwing. Ceramic implants are taking the dental industry a major step into the future. Thanks to this metal-free option, implant treatment with re- liable osseointegration, superior mechanical properties, biocompat- ibility and high aesthetic results can now be offered to the patients. TAV Dental Shlomi, Israel www.tavdental.com ZiBone WITAR Reduced healing time Biocompatible ceramic implant ZiBone is a one-piece zirconia implant (fi xture and abutment in one piece) made of extremely strong high-purity zirconia ZrO2- TZP, which has been used for years as orthopaedic implant ma- terial. By use of this material, the implant perfectly conforms to ISO 13356. Zirconia is an ideal material for the manufacturing of dental im- plants. Compared to implants made from aluminium oxide and titanium, zirconia possesses superior mechanical properties that titanium, zirconia possesses superior mechanical properties that are making the implant stronger, less brittle, resist to fracture and are making the implant stronger, less brittle, resist to fracture and deformation. The one-piece ceramic ZiBone implant is extremely deformation. The one-piece ceramic ZiBone implant is extremely biocompatible, and thus suitable for most patients. biocompatible, and thus suitable for most patients.

Metal-free, biocompatible and aesthetic: Ceramic implants have gained popularity among dentists and patients. Building upon this trend, WITAR offers a new AWI implant system for transgingival healing. With this, the company promises an implant treatment that is safe, cost-effi cient and simple. The two-piece system that has been developed and patented recently is made from Y-TZP ceramic and offers a reliable and easy handling. Treatment steps had been optimised for an increased safety and biocompatibility. At the same time, treatment costs and time could be reduced. The implant system consists of nine two-piece ceramic implants that are available in three different diameters (3.9, 4.5, 5 mm) and lengths (8, 10, 12 mm). With this, the system is indicated for all bone classes. Additionally, the one-piece AWI implant is available in two sizes (10, 12 mm) with a diameter of 3.9 mm and can be used in the anterior mandible. Four full-ceramic abutments of which two are straight and two are angled by 15 degrees, belong to the system as well. Furthermore, the system in- cludes a sterilisation box, surgical tray with milling machines made from ATZ high-performance ceramics, and turn- ing tools.
