Nobel Biocare have introduced a new one piece implant. The implant mimics natural teeth and is indicated for use in both single and multiple sites throughout the mouth.

It is machined from a single bar of titanium, incorporating both the implant body and an integral fixed abutment in one piece. The body of the implant is based on the Replace Select Tapered implant and is available in various lengths and diameters in both a scalloped and non-scalloped format. A special 3.0 diameter intended for tight-space challenges is also available.

According to Nobel Biocare, the surgery can be made flapless with minimal surgical invasion and far less discomfort for the patient and also means ease of placement for the dentist.

In addition it features the TiUnite surface, which ensures unsurpassed initial stability as well as long term osseointegration. The surface extends above the aveolar crest on the implant supporting the formation of a normal biological width.
