Which dental implants from French manufacturers should you choose?

172

The introduction of implant systems into the practice of orthopedic dentistry has radically solved the problem of toothless jaws.

Now similar designs are produced in many leading countries of the world, including France.

Several types of such systems are produced in the country. Next, the characteristics of T.BR implants will be discussed in more detail.

A little about the manufacturer

The creators of this world-famous brand are the French company of the same name, whose history dates back to the middle of the last century.

Founded in 1947, and then unknown to anyone, the company was engaged in the manufacture of dental prosthetic materials and orthodontic devices.

Somewhat later, the production of implants became the main focus of the company's scientific developments and innovative projects .

Today, the brand's products are exported to almost one hundred countries around the world. Antozhir implants have received recognition from medical practitioners due to their reliability, durability and full compliance with the performance characteristics declared by the manufacturer.

It is worth noting that this manufacturer is the first company to begin serial production of prosthetic implants in the world.

Rating of dental implants from different manufacturers

Let's look at the implantation systems that are most common in Russia. We will not highlight the best and worst among them, since each brand has its own nuances. We will divide all brands into several categories.

The most popular on the market

The three most popular implant systems in the world are Nobel Biocare, Astra Tech and Straumann.

These are some of the oldest manufacturers that have established themselves as the best. Their products are used even in complex clinical cases.

Astra Tech (Production: Sweden and USA)

Straumann (Production: Switzerland)

Nobel Biocare is one of the three most popular implant manufacturers on the market.

Nobel Biocare (Manufactured: Switzerland/USA)

Elite implants

Products from the manufacturers listed below are very similar in their features to the brands Nobel Biocare, Astra Tech and Straumann. They are also of high quality, but are inferior to top brands in the number of unique developments and solutions.

Xive (Production: Germany–USA)

Xive Ankylos (Production: Germany–USA)

Impro (Manufactured: Germany)

Biohorizons (Manufactured: USA)

German companies are among the leading manufacturers of luxury implants in Europe

NDI Medical (Manufactured: Germany)

The best budget implants

Branded implant systems are not only of good quality, but also of high price, so not everyone can afford them.

For patients who cannot afford to install expensive prostheses, there are quite affordable budget-class analogues.

Israeli and Korean implants are leaders in the budget systems segment.

Of course, prostheses from these manufacturers do not have as many installation solutions as products from well-known brands, and they cannot always be used in complex clinical cases. But they are of fairly high quality and cost half as much as top-end systems.

Many companies produce high quality implants at a price much lower than branded products.

Osstem (Production: South Korea)

Dentium (Production: South Korea)

MIS (Manufactured: Israel)

general description

Designs from French manufacturers fall into the category of premium medical dental products. This is one of the most prestigious and expensive brands.

All models are made of high-strength titanium. Its surface part is sprayed with a two-phase calcium phosphate alloy - this technology is unique and patented by the enterprise.

This sandblasting treatment with component microgranules is one of the most advanced technologies in world practice.

It makes it possible to obtain a rough protective surface , which will guarantee long-term stabilization of the structure in bone tissue, its fastest possible engraftment and many years of operation.

At the same time, calcium phosphate is perfectly biocompatible with natural fragments of tissue surrounding the structure.

The alloy is characterized by a high rate of mechanical activity, and the slightly lumpy surface topography firmly fixes the device to the bone.

A large product range has made it possible to significantly expand the scope of application of products - their installation is possible in almost all complex clinical cases .

The systems are focused on the highest aesthetic standards. This was achieved by a specifically designed neck of the product. It prevents the formation of pockets in the area where the implant is installed.

In this case, the element is completely invisible. Only the coronal part of the prosthesis is on display, completely replicating the natural organ.

The fastening system has a special snap-on clamp that firmly connects the abutment and the metal root part of the product. This eliminates by 97% the risk of tissue growing inside the system.

What is important to consider when choosing implant systems

• material and surface . Titanium is biocompatible with the jaw bone and has anti-corrosion properties. Its grade must be no less than Grad 5. Zirconium dioxide rods are more expensive, hypoallergenic, and have high aesthetic values. Implants must have a porous surface that will ensure rapid osseointegration.
• Shape and carving . The conical shape of the structure promotes proper load distribution and successful healing. For stable fixation in the bone, the implant must have several types of threads.
• Connection type . The triangular type of connection between the abutment and the crown guarantees safety from loosening and fracture.
• reputation . Well-known companies have a minimal risk of design failure and a lifetime warranty.
• Equipment, status of the clinic . Dentistry must be licensed to perform implantation.
• Specialist qualifications . The doctor must have documents confirming his professionalism.

Indications and contraindications

The main indications for installation of the Antozhir implant are:

• single, terminal and included pathologies of the jaw row;
• complete absence of natural organs;
• inability to use removable prosthetic devices;
• non-closing of teeth;
• high threshold for organ abrasion.

Contraindications to the installation of implants of this brand are more general than specific and include the following restrictions:

• pathologies of the circulatory system, in particular, its poor coagulability;
• cancerous malignant formations of primary and secondary nature;
• weak immune system activity;
• connective tissue diagnoses;
• prohibitions on any surgical intervention;
• heart failure;
• cachexia;
• improper oral care.

Visit to the dentist without pain

Forget the stress of a botched anesthesia, FDC uses painless pain management techniques.
QuickSleeper is an electronic system that provides simple, fast and comfortable pain relief.

VibraJect is a special attachment. It is an effective way to reduce pain and anxiety during local anesthesia. All this helps reduce patient stress from painful injections and unpleasant visits.

In our work, we use the highest quality dental implants from well-known global manufacturers. These are, first of all, products (Switzerland/USA), which have been used in dental clinics in various countries for many years and have proven their high efficiency and safety.

Advantages and disadvantages

The prosthetic system using Antozhir implants has a number of distinct advantages compared to analog devices:

• versatility of use - the structure can be installed both at the stage of single-stage and multi-stage installation;
• the product is fully adapted to any orthodontic model;
• the installation procedure is simplified and less traumatic;
• the system can be attached immediately after tooth amputation;
• an ideal solution for severe atrophy of bone tissue fragments or its structural content inappropriate to the norm in the area of ​​pin implantation;
• the period of osseointegration is significantly reduced due to the porous surface and unique two-phase spraying;
• the possibility of installation in cases where the area of ​​the included defect is limited - for this, developers have provided special system models;
• combine equally well with both titanium abutments and pins made of zirconium;
• the implantation procedure is somewhat shorter than the standard analog procedure;
• The implant is quite capable of stopping the processes of natural loss of bone tissue in the implantation area.

The product is not without its shortcomings, but it is important to note that all the disadvantages can be attributed to the design specifics of the systems structure:

• flat-bone connection method - such fixation with the abutment creates small gaps between the elements, which over time provokes a mechanical load on the fixation screw and forms a defect in the seating area, or a weakening of the fastening qualities of the screw;
• loss of bone tissue at the junction with the neck of the system, provided that a product with a diameter of 5 mm is used. The pathology is especially pronounced against the background of fastening the former with a wide base;
• tissue compaction - manifests itself when installing a pin with a standard base;
• lack of shapers for temporary use;
• weak rotational characteristics of abutments with an internal hexagon, which over time leads to unsealing of the crown elements.

Kinds

The company's product line consists of a number of series, each of which has its own design features, advantages and disadvantages, indications for installation and cost.

Axiom

The system consists of cone-shaped structures. They are distinguished by higher strength and the ability to be implanted into bone of any size.

Includes three models:

• the first is equipped with a deeper thread and a set of elements of various sizes and diameters. This expands the range of indications for the use of the system from frontal to lateral fragments of the dentition;
• the second is justified only for immediate load on the artificial root element and is mounted in bone tissue with reduced density.
• the third - thin structures , no more than 2.8 mm in diameter.

The system is designed for the restoration of anterior organ defects in confined spaces. These are the most expensive models with virtually no drawbacks. Their starting price starts at 11,000 rubles per unit.

Ossfit

Transgingival models used in removable prosthetics using telescopes and beams. It has one version, but is executed in several versions.

The system is indicated for installation where aesthetic content fades into the background. The design is specific by the presence of a gap between the implants and the crown part, which somewhat worsens the external design, since the crown protrudes slightly above the gum.

The model is suitable for immediate implantation and does not involve complex surgical procedures.

The system costs from 6,500 rubles.

Anthofit

A separate group of systems is Anthofit. Its fundamental difference is its versatility of use and great functional characteristics.

They can be attached with single crowns, combined with cemented prosthetics, when screwing in beam elements. The model is shown when installed immediately after organ removal. The system is represented by the following subtypes:

• BCP is the optimal solution for the restoration of anterior fragments thanks to a special fastening mechanism and a cervical element. Thus, the implant is completely located in the gum tissue;
• OI tapered is a conical device with an octahedron-shaped lock and a depth of 1.55. The design is stable because it completely imitates a natural tooth root;
• OI straight - cylindrical fragments of the system, equipped as a retainer with the same mechanism, only with six edges. Used in clinical situations aggravated by structural deformation of bone tissue;
• HE straight - a model similar to that described above, but shorter in height (no more than 0.5 mm). Indicated when the jaw bone is low in the installation area.

Euroteknika

Cone-shaped dental implant Euroteknika Naturall series

Produced by Euroteknika since 1992. In 2004, it was acquired by DCAG (a large manufacturer of dental materials and equipment). Such changes have had a positive impact on the quality of dental systems. Design features of artificial roots:

• made of titanium IV class;
• have double asymmetric thread;
• the surface is processed using a patented technology using sandblasting in combination with etching with hydrofluoric and nitric acid;
• equipped with micro-threads on the neck.

Advantages:

• high primary stability;
• the special surface accelerates osseointegration;
• special thread eliminates heating of the bone structure after implantation.

The Euroteknika line of implants includes 9 systems, but 5 are presented on the Russian market:

1. Naturall . Cone-shaped implant with internal hexagonal connection. Used for immediate implantation.
2. Natea . Cylindrical rod with tapered hexagonal connection. It is implanted using a two-stage method.
3. Aesthetica+ . Cylindrical transgingival rod with internal octagonal cone lock. Installed using a one-step method.
4. Naturex . Conical models with a diameter of 3 mm for implantation with a small amount of free space.
5. OBI . Ball design for stabilization of removable dentures.

The cost of Euroteknika implants is from 17,000 rubles.

Installation Features

This method of implantation involves installing systems in two ways - instant and two-stage. However, the first option has one significant drawback, so it is used infrequently.

This manipulation is always associated with the risk of infection of the tooth socket, since the wound there is open and not healed.

It is more advisable to install the system into already normal and healthy bone tissue. In this case, complications and internal tissue inflammation will be minimized.

Stages of a one-step procedure:

• preparation - sanitizing the cavity, eliminating contraindications, choosing a suitable design;
• tooth extraction and implantation of the body of the product and installation of a temporary crown. All manipulations are performed under local anesthesia;

Two-stage implantation looks like this:

• preparation and collection of necessary tests;
• implantation into bone tissue - the gum is cut and, through access to the bone, a dental bed is formed into which the implant is screwed in and fixed. A plug is placed on top, the gum is placed in its original place, and the wound is sutured. A removable denture is installed;
• installation of the former - carried out 5-6 weeks after implantation of the pin.

The disadvantage of this method is its duration. The entire turnkey procedure can take up to six months.

The advantage of the method is the reliability of fastening, a minimum of complications and inflammation of internal tissues caused by infection of the wound.

Biotech

Produced since 1987 by Biotech Dental. It has at its disposal a research base and a design bureau, producing everything necessary for dental implantology (artificial roots, surgical instruments, osteoplastic material). High quality is confirmed by European certificates. Design features :

• conical shape smoothly turning into cylindrical;
• presence of cervical thread;
• some models have a neck made of zirconium dioxide;
• the presence of an inclined ledge on the product allows for the reconstruction of soft tissues in the anterior part of the jaw;
• hydrophilic surface.

Advantages:

• high survival rate, reaching 98%;
• high stabilization and pressure resistance;
• tight fit to the bone;
• possibility of installation using a two-stage and one-stage method;
• the special surface accelerates the process of osseointegration;
• high aesthetics;
• Lifetime manufacturer's warranty.

Biotech implants are presented in the following series:

1. Biotech Smilea . They are equipped with a zirconium neck; during osseointegration, the tissue adheres tightly to it, which avoids the installation of a former. A vacuum attachment is placed between the neck and the body of the rod to prevent the penetration of bacteria. The abutment is connected to the implant using an octagon, which eliminates rotation of the superstructure.
2. BIS-Conic . It has a root-like shape and double threads, providing good primary stabilization. A microscopic four-start thread is placed on the cervical area, which prevents destruction of the jaw bone after implantation.
3. Smilea Conic . Combines all the advantages of the two previous models.
4. iBall . Mini-implants for a one-step installation technique with immediate loading.

The cost of the Biotech implantation system is from 18,000 rubles.

Warranties and service life

The warranty stated by the manufacturer is 5 years. If during this period the system breaks down through no fault of the patient, the manufacturer will not only replace the implant, but also compensate for the costs incurred by the person during the treatment process.

Situations when a product is rejected by the body are quite rare, but even in this case, it is provided for free replacement with a model from a different series.

According to numerous reviews from patients, the average service life of structures, if the rules of use and care are followed, is an order of magnitude higher than stated. As a rule, we are talking about 10–15 years of full operation .

From the video you will learn about the capabilities of Antogir implants.

Price

As mentioned earlier, TBR implants belong to the elite of the dental market, so the cost of prosthetics using them cannot be cheap. However, it is worth noting that the high mark is not only for price, but also for quality.

In addition, the size of the final price tag payable for implantation will depend on the prestige of the clinic, the professionalism and experience of the doctor, and the complexity of the clinical case.

In dental centers in Moscow, the average cost of one TBR implant is about 15,000 rubles.

Restoring a lost tooth on a turnkey basis using the presented products will cost the patient about 26,000 rubles. per unit and excluding the price per crown.
