Only in ex- tremely narrow bone sites a flap is neces- sary. Like all KOS-implants also KOS® T provides an immediate 3-D corticalisa- tion of the bone.Thereby an increase of minerals nearby the implant is found in- stantlyandthisallowsimmediateloading in most of the cases. Anchoring the im- plant in addition in the opposing cortical bone further increases the primary and final stability. KOS® T is supplied with a double-sandblasted, osmoactive® sur- face configuration.The osmoactive coat- ing was developed by Swiss researchers and it acts like an anti-bacterial barrier: it selectively prevents bacterial growth and promotes the growth of bone building os- teoblasts at the same time.
