OsseoSpeed Profile EV from Dentsply Sirona is a unique implant specifically designed to follow the existing bone in sloped ridge situations, maintain soft tissue aesthetics and help reduce the need for bone augmentation.

It's known that crestal bone resorbs after tooth extraction or loss, and is often pronounced on the buccal side, resulting in a lingual-to-buccal sloped ridge. This can occur even if a standard implant is immediately placed in the extraction socket. Because bone-to-implant support is three-dimensional it is important to have 360° marginal bone support around the entire implant.

When standard implants are placed level with the lingual bone the implant neck is exposed buccally, compromising soft tissue aesthetics. Implants placed level with the buccal bone means unsupported lingual marginal bone is lost.

OsseoSpeed Profile EV is placed level with both buccal and lingual marginal bone, preserving soft tissue aesthetics and helping reduce the need for bone augmentation. This unique one-position-only placement makes the entire treatment procedure simple and predictable, from implant placement to connection of the final abutment.
