ANKYLOS dental implants – confidence of lasting life-like aesthetics and reliability
For more than twenty years, the ANKYLOS implant system has been helping dental practitioners around the world recreate beautifully natural smiles for their patients. The system enables dentists to replace missing teeth with long-lasting restorations that look and function just like the real thing.
The two-piece ANKYLOS® design allows the implant to be located to provide the strongest possible foundation at the same time as achieving the optimum orientation for the restoration on top - crown, bridge or denture. But, this is only half the story. Healthy supporting bone and gums around the implant are essential for its long-term stability and sustained natural appearance.
TissueCare Connection
The lasting natural aesthetics and long-term stability of ANKYLOS® implants result from the strength and integrity of the connection between the implant and the abutment that supports the restoration. The TissueCare Connection is a precisely engineered cylindrical ‘morse’ taper which ensures a tight fit, with a 360 degree seal and a mechanically firm joint. The exact match between the two parts of the implant prevents resorption of the surrounding bone which can result in implant failure.
The proven long-term success of the ANKYLOS® TissueCare Connection is the result of elimination of the microgap between the implant and the abutment. This prevents micromovement and leakage of oral fluids into the implant body. The avoidance of both microbial and mechanical irritation reduces the risk of inflammation, thereby enhancing recovery of and long term health of the underlying bone and surrounding gum tissues.
Designed for natural harmony
The ANKYLOS® implant and the abutment are so tightly joined they become effectively a single unit. The patented progressive thread design on the outside of the implant is ideally matched to the structure of the bone. Additionally, the implant has a special etched surface to encourage intimate union with the surrounding bone, a process known as osseointegration.
