Industry News DENTAL TRIBUNE | September 201028A eter implants offer a fixed perma- nent tooth replacement option for patients who otherwise would not be able to have implants placed and restored,” wrote Paul Petrungaro in “Clinical Briefs” in the publication Inside Dentistry, No. 3/2006. The Anew Implant design offers practitioners a unique chairside, screw-retained restoration that fits where conventional diameter implant systems do not. The recom- mended surgical techniques allow for minimally invasive placement (no flaps) and immediate loading. This eliminates most postoperative challenges and dramatically reduc- es the total time in treatment. The economical prosthetic com- ponents designed for all sizes and lengths of Anew Implants are used for interim restorations and labora- tory procedures. The advantage is immediate fixed temporization at implant placement without the need for removable appliances during the osseointegration interval. Rather than having a recess with- in the implant, the screw is formed on the coronal aspect of the implant. The crown is stabilized on the square platform and secured with a resin screw-cap that is recessed within the abutment, which allows for retrieval without excess force or cross-thread damage to implants. Crowned tissue contacts can be incrementally added for guiding tis- sue emergence profiles and creating esthetic papillae, preventing black- hole syndromes between teeth. The narrow, polished platform and a short external screw abut- ment of Anew Implants help to create exceptional esthetics with sculpted tissue forms for tooth emergence profiles. The non-hygro- scopic screw-cap abutment allows implants to be easily monitored, altered and adapted to a permanent restoration. With Anew Implants, patients’ quality of life and ability to main- tain a normal lifestyle during the course of treatment is significantly enhanced. These implants can pro- vide implant therapy to a much larger segment of the population, one that was previously neglected. Anew Implants, made of Grade 5 Ti-alloy, have an etched surface for improved stability and osseointe- gration and are packaged pre-ster- ilized. In 2004, they were granted FDA approval. The restorative pro- tocol was developed in conjunc- tion with the Department of Implant Dentistry at New York University College of Dentistry. Numerous published clinical and histological studies of the Anew Implant report excellent bone adaptation and high survival levels, in addition to 100 percent patient satisfaction.
