Successful clinical outcomes with TiUltra™ surface: Emerging data
At Nobel Biocare, science is at the heart of everything we do. This white paper reveals groundbreaking insights from over 1,270 patients, 2,000 TiUltra implants, and 12 clinical studies.
Xeal™ abutment surface for strong and stable soft tissue attachment to protect underlying bone and promote natural esthetics
Tissue integration begins here. Soft tissue attachment contact with an abutment can act as a barrier that protects the underlying bone. This is the basis for long-term tissue health and stability.4-7
Surface chemistry and topography that are specially designed to promote soft tissue attachment.1,8
Surface chemistry to enhance cell attachment.1,8
On1™ concept
Preserve the soft tissue attachment without compromising flexibility.
Multi-unit Abutment
Carefully designed to rehabilitate both edentulous and partially edentulous arches.
Implant surface technologies
Roughness, porosity, and surface chemistry are important factors for tissue integration. Surface chemistry plays an especially vital role in enhancing cell attachment.9-11
TiUltra™ implant surface - more than roughness
Ideal tissue integration isn’t just about surface roughness, it’s about how every surface reacts with the tissue around it. The TiUltra surface is ultra-hydrophilic, anodized, with a gradual change in topography, becoming moderately rough and porous towards the implant apex.9,12,1
Non porous nanostructured collar
At collar level, the TiUltra surface is non-porous and nanostructured. Its golden hue is a happy byproduct of the specific oxide thickness achieved during anodization.9
Collar designed for bone stability
TiUltra implant surface applied in the collar region features surface chemistry and topography that are designed to promote early osseointegration and are designed to support bone stability.9,14
Pristine surface
The surface chemistry and hydrophilicity of Xeal and TiUltra surfaces are preserved with the protective layer. This ensures that every implant and abutment arrives in pristine condition – to you and to your patients.8,9
