Straumann's SLActive implant surface technology claims to reduce healing time to as little as three to four weeks, resulting in clear, shorter treatment protocols, increased predictability and a reduced risk with earlier loading.

Produced of pure titanium, Straumann's SLActive surface features optimal surface topography for bone cells to attach themselves. Using an innovative manufacturing process, the surface is conditioned in nitrogen and immediately preserved in an isotonic saline solution. This ensures SLActive maintains its high surface activity, which would otherwise be lost due to reaction with the atmosphere.
