| interview “Implantology is a field of opportunities” Lately, Anthogyr introduced its newest product to the dental audience, the Axiom® Multi Level® system. At this year’s EAO congress in Madrid, Spain, implants spoke to Anthogyr CEO Éric Genève about the new system, the company’s collaboration with Straumann, and future plans. How did you experience this year’s EAO, and on which product did you lay your main focus? Anthogyr had been exhibiting at many EAO con- gresses now—meanwhile, we have become a gold sponsor. At this year’s EAO, we presented our newly developed Axiom® Multi Level® concept which was already revealed in Paris last year. In Madrid, we wanted to introduce this product to the Spanish market before it will be fully launched in the begin- ning of 2018. What is special about the Axiom® Multi Level® concept? The speciality of this concept is the very unique inLink® connection. With this, practitioners have an Fig. 1: Interview with Anthogyr CEO Éric Genève (middle), Georg Isbaner (right), editorial manager of implants, and Laetitia Martin-Berne, Anthogyr communication manager.

Axiom® Multi Level® offers a great variety of surgical and prosthetic treatment possibilities with a clear focus on CAD/ CAM solutions. The real added value of the new inLink® connec- tion contains two key aspects. On the one hand, the retaining screw is already fixed to the structure so that practitioners merely have to tighten the screw. On the other hand, due to the CAD/CAM structure angulations of the implants can be com- pensated by the implant prosthetics. Thus, there is no further need for specially angulated super- structures. Due to the connection geometry, any implant axis can be compensated without affect- ing functionality. This is a very cost-efficient and simple solution, proving the innovative force of Anthogyr. Furthermore, this new system also facilitates the dental technician’s work a lot. Due to the very low structure height of the retaining screw, the techni- cian is able to position the angulation for a trans- verse screwing channel at an early point. Is this system primary meant for full prosthetic solutions? The Axiom® Multi Level® system can be used for both full prosthetic and bridge restorations. Al- though, the system’s added value comes to its best effect in full prosthetic restorations. For bridge res- torations there are other very good options. Beyond that, the system can also be applied for immediate restorations, since it offers the possibility to work with angulated temporary superstructures made from titanium. Is the concept fully integrated into a digital workflow? To date, the concept is not yet integrated into a digital workflow, but it will be in the future. At the moment, we are in an evaluation process in order to make sure an effective and fully integration of the Axiom® Multi Level® concept from camera to manufacturing.
