Our philosophy

You can count on Dentsply Sirona Implants for solid scientific documentation and reliable clinical results. Our products have been documented for a range of clinical indications, surgical applications and prosthetic solutions. Ongoing clinical research and product development is directed towards treatment of more demanding and advanced situations, as well as towards alternative protocols for increased patient comfort during treatment.

These efforts are supported by the important information we get from pre-clinical in vitro and in vivo studies. In fact, our comprehensive portfolio is supported by more than 2,000 peer-reviewed articles. The data present exceptional results for efficacy and reliability including:

High implant and prosthetic success and survival rates.

High accuracy of implant placement for computer-guided implant treatment.

High osseoconductive and resorbable properties of our regenerative materials.

Maintained marginal bone levels and healthy peri-implant soft tissues.

"Thanks to science, we now have an industry that’s able to help millions of people every year.”

Continuing to challenge with sound science

Extensive study program

By searching further and continuing to challenge with sound science, we can provide evidence demonstrating biological sustainability, leading to optimal dental implant treatment outcomes.

We search further because we are committed to sound science, providing biological sustainability for a world where everyone can eat, speak and smile with confidence. We are dedicated to science, and run a variety of research activities in close collaboration with universities, dental professionals and opinion leaders.

Together we share our knowledge and experience to find the best solutions for customers and the patients. You can feel confident that we deliver safe and reliable products as a result of our high quality studies based on sound science, adhering to regulatory demands.

"Thanks to science, we keep finding better and more predictable treatment options."

Published results

Long-term clinical evidence with Ankylos Implant System

Minimal bone loss and excellent survival rates

Excellent 10-year clinical results for immediately loaded OsseoSpeed implants placed in the edentulous mandible. In this long-term prospective study no implant losses occurred and peri-implant bone levels were kept stable over time in the majority of cases.

Read

First randomized controlled clinical trial evaluating OsseoSpeed EV

Behind the success story of Acuris

Successful clinical results with the conometric concept, the foundation for the Acuris development. Three clinical studies reported stable retention, high survival rates and stable bone levels after up to 5 years follow-up.

Read

Similar clinical results for short and longer implants

Short OsseoSpeed implants show similar clinical results as longer implants placed in combination with sinus floor elevation over a 5-year observation period. In addition to excellent clinical performance, benefits such as less patient morbidity in the short-term, reduced treatment time and costs were noticed for the short implant treatment group.
