MIS Implants offers new
conical connection implant
n MIS Implants Technologies has
recently launched the new C1 implant
system. This new C1 system brings
a combination of proven and innovative design features to market,
including a conical connection and
abutments that utilize a platformswitching concept.
The 6-degree conical connection
ensures a secure fit between the
abutment and implant. By minimizing micro-movement at that junction, bone loss at the crestal level is
reduced. There is a six-position cone
index within the conical connection
to help orient the implant during
insertion and place the abutment into
the proper position.
Implants, abutments and tools are
color-coded according to platform
size for easy identification. The standard platform refers to the 3.75 and 4.2
mm diameter implants, while the 5
mm diameter implant is the wide platform. Lengths for all of the diameters
come in 8, 10, 11.5, 13 and 16 mm.
The C1 implant (as all of the MIS
implants) is made from a titanium
alloy that contains titanium, aluminum and vanadium known as Ti-6A14V-ELI (Grade 23). This alloy has high
fatigue strength and is highly biocompatible. Similar to commercially pure
titanium implants (Grades 1-4), the
outer surface of these implants consists of a thin layer of pure titanium
oxide (TiO2).
The unique geometry of the C1
implant encourages primary stability with mild bone compression at
the upper 2/3 of the implant. The
final drill, used during preparation
of the osteotomy, is designed in such
a way to allow less compression by
the threads at the apical third of the
implant, which will enable rapid bone
growth in that area. These two characteristics have been put in place to
minimize the period of time between
initial mechanical stability and longterm biologic stability.
Platform switching is a restorative concept that has been shown to
minimize crestal bone loss. It has
been theorized that moving the junction of the implant/abutment connection away from the outer edge of the
implant platform reduces the bacterial component that could lead to loss
of vertical height. For those clinicians
who prefer to utilize platform switching in the restorative phase, the C1
abutments have been designed to
allow this.
As with other MIS products, the
surface treatment consists of both
large particle blasting and acid etching. This not only creates micro- and
nano-surface morphology, but also
ensures a high-quality, contaminantfree surface that has been shown
to achieve superb osseointegration

Here at the ICOI

results, according to the company.
The apex of the C1 implants is domeshaped to help prevent damage to the

mandibular nerve as well as to avoid
perforation of the sinus membrane.
Packaged with each C1 implant is a
sterile, single-use final drill, a cover
screw and a temporary PEEK abutment. Each implant (including these
additional components) is sold for
$249.

From intraoral scan to final
custom implant restoration
By Perry E. Jones, DDS, FAGD
n This case demonstrates the optical scanning of Inclusive® Scanning
Abutments (Glidewell Laboratories;
Newport Beach, Calif.) utilizing the
iTero™ digital scanning system (Align
Technology; San Jose, Calif.) with
software version 4.0. Digital data was
used with laboratory CAD/CAM planning to fabricate custom all-ceramic
implant abutments and a four-unit
fixed prosthesis. The abutments and
fixed prosthesis were fabricated
using advanced computer-aided milling technology.

Here at the ICOI
For more information about the
Inclusive Scanning Abutments, stop by

which displayed an implant stability
quotient (ISQ) of 78 on a minimum-tomaximum scale of 1–100.
Counter rotation with a torque
wrench confirmed no rotation to 35
Ncm. The implant fixtures were considered acceptable for restoration.
The 5 mm healing abutments were
removed, Inclusive Scanning Abutments were placed on the implants,
and the accompanying titanium
screws were tightened (Fig. 1).
Using the iTero scanner with
updated software (version 4.0), a full
maxillary arch scan, full mandibular
arch scan and centric bite in maximum intercuspation were completed.
A three-dimensional digital record
of the patient’s anatomy was created
from these scans and electronically
submitted to Glidewell Laboratories
to be used in the CAD/CAM restoration process.
At Glidewell Laboratories, the virtual scan was registered to the scanning abutments, providing the dental
technicians with the implant system,
size, axis, position relative to the adjacent anatomy and locking feature orientation. A virtual zirconia abutment
was designed using 3Shape’s DentalDesigner™ software (3Shape Inc.; New
Providence, N.J.) and the Glidewell
Digital Abutment Library (Fig. 2).
From this, the corresponding physical Inclusive All-Zirconia Custom
Abutments (Glidewell Laboratories)
were milled.
Similarly, a BruxZir ® Solid Zirconia
four-unit fixed bridge (Glidewell Laboratories) was designed and milled

using state-of-the-art CAD/CAM technology. The custom zirconia abutments were trial-fitted in the patient’s
mouth with slight tissue blanching
noted (Fig. 3).
In the same visit, the final four-unit
all-ceramic milled BruxZir Solid Zirconia bridge was tried-in and examined for proper occlusion. There was
“tight” anterior coupling for this case
as evidenced by the history of provisional denture fracture. The occlusion
was checked and presented as so precise that no adjustment was required.
The anterior view of the final prosthesis demonstrates optimal mesialdistal width proportion, incisal edge
proportion, pontic-tissue contact and
excellent shade/esthetics (Fig. 4). Further, the occlusal view demonstrates
an optimal incisal edge arch form.
The soft-tissue lip position and speech
phonetics appeared to be optimal.
Following the trial seating, the
fixed bridge was removed, the zirconia
abutment retention screws torqued to
35 Ncm, the abutment screws covered
with cotton/Cavit™ Temporary Filling Material (3M™ ESPE™; St. Paul,
Minn.), and the prosthesis cemented
with GC Fuji PLUS ™(GC America;
Alsip, Ill.).

Dental history

The patient was a 52-year-old healthy
Hispanic male who sustained a traumatic avulsion and lost his maxillary
incisors in an automobile accident.
Following healing, a four-tooth transitional removable partial denture was
constructed. He was seen by the oral
and maxillofacial surgery service of
Virginia Commonwealth University
for dental implant therapy.

Treatment plan

The patient was informed of the alternatives, benefits and potential complications of various treatment options
before deciding to pursue implant
restoration of his missing teeth.
The treatment plan included placement of two Replace® Select Straight
RP 4.3 x 13 mm implants (Nobel Biocare; Yorba Linda, Calif.) with 5 mm
healing abutments, followed by a sixmonth healing period and restoration
with all-ceramic custom abutments
and a four-unit, all-ceramic fixed prosthesis to restore the anterior incisors
to form and function.

Surgical procedure

Using local anesthesia, two Replace
Select Straight RP implant fixtures
were placed in the area of teeth #7 and
#10, using standard Nobel implant
placement protocol. Placement angulation and depth were verified and
deemed satisfactory. Standard RP 5
mm healing abutments were placed,
and the fully reflected tissue flap was
closed with interrupted sutures.

Restorative procedure

Following six months of healing postimplant placement, intraoral photos
were taken to record and confirm
the healthy remaining dentition.
Osseous integration was confirmed
with a panoramic X-ray, followed by
resonance frequency analysis (RFA)
using an Osstell® ISQ implant stability meter with SmartPeg™ attachment (Osstell USA; Linthicum, Md.),

ANEW meets ‘most
precise’ standards
Narrow-body implants ideal for patients who have limited inter-dental spaces,
insufficient bone or require provisionalization during augmentation procedures
n First used in 2000 and granted FDA
approval in 2004 for long-term use as
determined by health-care providers, the 1.8, 2.2 and 2.4 mm diameter
ANEW implants from Dentatus have
met the most precise implantology
standards having undergone rigorous testing, research and clinical use
by the profession.
ANEW Implants are widely recognized by clinicians and universities worldwide. These narrow-body
implants provide effective remedy
for many because they are ideal
for patients who have limited interdental spaces, insufficient bone or
require provisionalization during
augmentation procedures.
Nearly 25 percent of patients who
come in for implant treatment will
not have enough bone to place a
conventional diameter implant, Dentatus said. ANEW Implants should
also be considered when financial
constraints might delay or prevent
treatment. Every practitioner placing
implants should consider including
ANEW in his or her armamentarium
so that all patients might take advantage of the benefits that implants
afford.
ANEW Implants are the only onepiece narrow-body implants that
have restorative options for screwretained prosthesis, Dentatus said.
ANEW boasts a number of features
that set it apart from other implants,
including a short-threaded external
connector that tolerates substantial
abutment angulation without stress.
ANEW’s prosthetic components
provide patients with a cosmetic,
fixed chairside restoration at the time
of placement so they never have to go
without teeth. There are a variety of
platforms available for restorative
ease, presenting flexibility for optimal esthetic solutions.
For instances of single-tooth
replacement in narrow spaces, the
availability of ANEW Implants provides patients who might have to
proceed with a fixed or resin-bonded
bridge the luxury of dental implants
without preparation and/or reduction of the adjacent natural dentition.

erative challenges and dramatically
reduces the total time in treatment.
These implants solve the problems
of time, money and perceived pain
for most patients who otherwise do
not proceed with care, Dentatus said.
Other indications for use:

Another advantage to this modality
is the maintenance of aveolar bone,
which is documented to undergo
resorption with other restorative
options.
In 2012, Dr. Francois Fisslier and
Dr. Carlos Munoz from the New York
University Department of Implant
Dentistry presented the following
findings about papilla regeneration
at the Academy of Osseointegration’s
27th annual meeting:
“In this case series, nine patients
received 10 [ANEW Narrow Diameter
Implants (NDIs)], which were loaded
for periods of six months to 10 years
post-insertion. No implants or prosthesis had to be removed or replaced
during the follow-up period. Neither
a surgical or prosthetic complication
was seen on any of the 10 NDIs.
“The average mesial [Papilla Index
Score (PIS)] was 2.4 and the average
distal PIS was 2.7, indicating the NDIs
regenerated at least 50 percent of the
papilla in all cases (20/20 papilla).”
The non-hygroscopic screwcap
allows for retrievability, so that during the healing period the restoration
contours can be easily modified to the

tissue architecture, thereby eliminating a final “black triangle” result,
Dentatus said.
Their effective adaptation and integration in bone has been shown to be
on par with conventional implant fixtures and provide excellent support
and retention.
In 2007, Dr. Stuart Froum and
his colleagues published a study in
the International Journal of Perio
and Restorative Dentistry stating “40
ANEW Implants in patients for one to
five years post-loading. No implant
failures were reported, yielding a 100
percent survival rating.”  
In 2005, the Journal of Oral and
Maxillofacial Implants published
Dr. Michael Rohrer’s histology study
on Dentatus implants. Rohrer determined that the percentage of bone
in contact with the body of Dentatus implants is in “the same range
and sometimes higher than what
is usually seen with conventional
implants.”  
The recommended surgical techniques allow for minimally invasive
flapless placement and immediate
loading. This eliminates most postop-

For patients with atrophic and thin
ridges who cannot or do not want to
undergo lengthy augmentation procedures based on age, systemic disease or inadequate volume of bone,
ANEW Implants are an economical
and viable long-term solution.

Emergency repairs

One of the most difficult situations
for the practitioner is the emergency
intraoral repair of a broken bridge.
With ANEW Implants on hand, those
difficulties are a thing of the past,
Dentatus said. Once the bridge is
removed, the implant can be placed
in the interceptal bone, stabilizing
the bridge, returning the patient to a
dentate state while a long-term treatment plan is determined.

Bone augmentation

Many implant treatment plans
include some type of bone augmentation procedure. It may involve a sinus
lift, replacement of the buccal plate
and/or widening or heightening a
ridge.
Selling an implant case involves
overcoming a patient’s concerns;
one of the major roadblocks is the
patient’s perception of a long, drawn
out treatment period. ANEW implants
will give patients teeth during the
entire treatment and avoids transmucosal loading of the graft while the
patient is able to function with a fixed
restoration.

to place implants off-axis (i.e., tilted)
and choose from multiple surgical
protocols, including immediate-load,
screw-retained restorations, to best
meet the specific restorative needs of
their patients.
Available in 15- and 30-degree
angle configurations, the Zimmer
Angled Tapered Abutment promotes
angulation correction for off-axis
implant placement, repositioning
the restorative platform to facilitate
insertion of the prosthesis.
The abutment’s 1.2 mm low-profile
cone is ideal for use in cases with
limited interocclusal space, while the
cone’s 15-degree taper allows for additional angulation correction.
The ability to place implants offaxis aids in maximizing the use of
available bone, avoiding the alveolar nerve and sinus and minimizing
the cantilevers for the prosthesis in
multi-unit, partially and fully edentulous screw-retained restorations.
The user-friendly Zimmer Angled
Tapered Abutment’s multiple cuff
heights enable the clinician to select
the size that best meets the patients’
soft-tissue measurements.
Furthermore, this new abutment
has exhibited exceptional strength
and durability in testing compared
to other popular brands, according to
the company, and is fully compatible
with Zimmer Dental’s existing restorative components and the renowned
Tapered Screw-Vent® Implant System
for greater convenience.
“These new Angled Tapered Abutments broaden our restorative portfolio and give clinicians even more
flexibility in choosing surgical protocols to best meet the needs of their
patients, restore their mouth function
and enhance their quality of life,” said
Harold C. Flynn Jr., Zimmer Dental
president. “At the end of the day, our
focus, first and foremost, is on giving
our customers the tools they need to
improve their patients’ lives.”
For decades, Zimmer Dental has
gained the trust of thousands of clinicians worldwide who count on its
comprehensive line of products to
deliver successful patient outcomes,
the company says.
