Anatotemp have come up with an abutment to help dental surgeons and other dental professionals really creat dental restorations that surpass those given in the past. The Anatotemp dental implant will give better performance in terms of hygiene and cleanliness which should always be the dentist and patients first concern. If that wasn’t enough, this potentially revolutionary abutment will also look and feel much better than its predecessors. The range of abutments created fits the majority of dental implant systems in
Implant Locator
A submerged dental implant is typically hard to find for dental professionals because they are normally hidden beneath many layers of gum tissue. Finding the precise location can be invaluable for dentists and thanks to the patented technology of the GoldenDent Implant Locator System, this can now be done in a matter of seconds. The device uses a clever lighting system to indicate to the user exactly where the implant is located, by sweeping the probe across the localised region,
RomiPointer – Dental Implant Location Detector
Romidan’s Romipointer is an electronic wand that allows the precise detection of a submerged implant’s location. By using a disposable sensor and a series of sweeps around the submerged implant’s location, the device provides feedback as to the implant’s location. The implant locating system has a system of lights that indicate when the sensor is near the implant and when it moves away from it, once the implant is located, the visual indication is accompanied by a solid audio signal.

Color CT Scanner by Mars Imaging using Spectral Molecular Imaging
New Zealand based, Mars Imaging has released their color 3D CT-scanner that uses technology based on CERN technology developed in the search for the God particle at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland. The new scanner was developed by Professors Phil and Anthony Butler from Canterbury and Otago Universities in New Zealand. Professors Butler are father and son, scientists, and creators of the new medial scanner. They’ve been working on this new scanner for the past ten years, and just now they’ve
Healing Abutment Re-Use leads to UNLV Faculty Resignation and Letter to Patients
Single-use healing abutments were re-used in multiple patients after being sterilized in 184 patients at the University of Nevada – Las Vegas’s Faculty Dental Practice Clinic leading to the resignation of the director of the faculty group practice. “It’s not cost prohibitive, but it adds to the cost,” director Devore said. “Why buy something new if the thing you already have works just as well?” In addition to phoning patients, the university followed up
LM Dental’s Misura MR Line for Optimal Freehand Implant Placement
Finnish dental manufacturer, LM Dental, has unveiled a line of 5 instruments designed by StyleItaliano member Marco Redemagni MD, DDS to assist implantologists with optimal placement of the first osteotomy. The 5 double-ended instruments come in 10 different diameters ranging from 3.0 – 6.3 mm. The Implant Misura Space Bar is an instrument that aids in the positioning of the first drill during bony drilling, thereby providing for the correct distance to ensure the requisite intra-implant and tooth-implant physiologic
Trefoil – An adjustable at time of surgery All-on-Three Option from NobelBiocare
Nobel Biocare’s All-on-3 Trefoil system enables increased precision as well as adaptive implant surgery, that automatically adjusts to any deviations that will inevitably be experienced during the implant placement process using an innovative universal ball-joint design to a pre-manufactured arch bar. The innovative universal joint can accommodate up to 4 degrees of angular deviation, 0.4mm of horizontal deviation and 0.5mm of vertical deviation. This state of the art system enables many benefits for the dental professional, as it allows teeth
Guide Pro 3D: An Alternative Implant Approach
Freehand implants require a great deal of skill, time and effort for a dentist to pull off. Not only this, the consistency from patient to patient is something which is clearly lacking if an implant is done by hand, which begs the question of whether or not there is a better way. The GuidePro3D utilizes disruptive technology; additive layer manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing, to be able to print out a custom frame and cartridge (as pictured) in just
Automatic Profile Generator (APG) – Software for Customized Healing Abutments – $299.00
The esthetic quality and integrity of every single implant is inarguably influenced by the peri-implant tissue shaping of the implant healing abutment itself. Having the ability to be able to make highly accurate personalized healing abutments in a matter of minutes using the latest CAD/CAM software is a great tool for implantologists to have. The above picture and video shows how simple the process is to make a personalized healing abutment shaping block. This will take around 30 seconds
Immediate Placement Kit (IPIP)
Internationally patented, this immediate placement kit brings the latest technology in precision dental engineering to ensure fast and efficient tooth extraction with immediate implant placement The specially designed tool, as shown in the image effectively locks in place and secures the direction in which dentists need to drill. This means there can be know distortions in the drilling movement and a clean channel can be produced, which is a much more repeatable process. In turn, by creating such a neatly
