| interview “Ceramic will replace titanium in the long run” In 2004, Z-Systems obtained the first CE certification for one-piece ceramic implants; three years later they obtained FDA certification as the first ceramic implant manufacturer. From that point on, the company de- veloped to one of the leading companies in the global market of ceramic implants. Tens of thousands of suc- cessfully placed implants and more than 15 years of experience have brought the company significant ad- vances in manufacturing, quality and know-how. In the interview, Z-Systems provides an insight into the compa- ny’s success story and gives an ambitious outlook into the future of ceramic implants. Z-Systems is one of the leading companies in the field of ceramic implants. What is your success story? We are not only one of the leading companies in the field of ceramic implants, but we are also innovation and world market leader for many years now. In the last 16 years, about 50,000 Z-Systems implants had been inserted. This is a number which is not even roughly achieved by any other company. Thereby, uppermost maxim and one main reason of success is our uncompromising safety awareness. We know from experience that in the devel- opment and production of ceramic implants there are far more factors needed to be kept in mind than for titanium implants. Material, surface and implant-abutment geom- etry are key factors for favourable outcomes, guarantee- ing long-term traceable success rates of over 98 per cent. 44 implants 1 2017
