Alfa bio implants (Israel)

Each company has its own approach to the design and production of implants. The Israeli company Alfa-bio Tec has focused on simplicity and ergonomics. As a result, Alfa-bio implants have become one of the most popular in the business segment. For more than 25 years they have been used in the USA, Canada and European countries. In recent years, Alpha Bio implantation has become popular in Russia.

Company philosophy

Implantation should be affordable and ergonomic – this is the motto of the brand. Alfabio implant system is suitable for all clinical cases. High-quality, reliable, user-friendly technology is the company’s goal. This is achieved by a number of factors, one of which is the minimal number of components. One universal surgical kit is suitable for any procedure. At the same time, it contains everything from a basic set of instruments to advanced products for complex cases. This makes training much easier and reduces the cost of the work.

Alfa Bio implant systems

The company’s main achievement is the prosthetic system for implants. One platform is suitable for all variants of implant diameters. This makes prosthetics much easier and speeds up the rehabilitation process.

The implant surface is of equal importance, because it is the key to fast and successful osseointegration.

Material and coating

Alpha bio implants are made of medical titanium. This is a durable and, most importantly, biocompatible metal. It ensures the strength of the structure. The specially developed Nano Tec coating is responsible for its implantability and is created by a combination of aluminum oxide sandblasting and acid etching. The result is a surface that increases blood protein absorption and has high hydrophilic properties.

Internal hexagonal product line

Although the production of Alpha bio implants in Israel began with standard, cylindrical products, the company has brought six-faceted designs to the world market. Their advantages:

• ergonomic insertion;
• manual control;
• use with small bone volumes;
• combination of primary stability and minimal loading.

Alpha bio spiral implants allow the implantologist to change the direction of placement during insertion. This does not affect the primary stability of the post.

This range includes 5 modifications: Spiral, ICE, ATID, DFI, MultiNeO.

Tapered hexagon product line

Models of this range are characterized by narrow necks. They are used where space is limited, the alveolar ridge is thin and there are living roots nearby. These products are ideal for:

• complex clinical cases;
• one-stage placement;
• immediate loading;
• single tooth and whole tooth restorations.

The thin tapered body of these products, the micro threads and the hexagonal connection stimulate bone growth around the implant neck. This promotes rapid osseointegration and aesthetic appearance.

To the disadvantages of the brand can be attributed a wide range of restrictions for patients with comorbidities. Most models are designed for a two-stage treatment protocol, which means that the restoration process will be lengthy.

Stages of installation

Alpha Bio implant placement requires advance preparation and careful planning. Implantation involves several steps.

1. Gathering anamnesis

Chronic diseases, acute processes affect the engraftment of implants. The doctor needs these details in order to make a decision about the appropriateness of implant placement at this time.

2. Diagnosis

Bone preservation, alveolar ridge height, and oral cavity condition are determined.

A work plan is created. If necessary, treatment, extraction, cleaning of teeth is carried out.

3. Implant placement

In most cases, an incision is made in the gum and the implant screw is screwed into the gum. A cap is placed on top and stitches are placed. In a one-step protocol, a temporary crown is placed immediately.

4. Rehabilitation

The process of osseointegration takes from 3 months to six months. In this process, a big role is played by: the right choice of implant, the quality of placement, the general condition of the body and compliance with recommendations. After the implantation is confirmed by X-rays, permanent crowns are placed.

Price of the question

The popularity of Israeli Alpha Bio implants in Moscow is due, first of all, to the price. However, when choosing an implant, it is better to take into account other criteria. It is important that the selected product can solve the problem of a particular patient. It is necessary for the implant to take root. It is important that the prosthetics do not cause additional problems.

98% of Alpha Bio implants successfully integrate into the bone

All of the above depends largely on the clinic where the implantation will take place.

Choosing a clinic

Choosing an implant is important, but equally important is the dentistry where the procedure will take place. Don’t rush to choose a clinic simply because the prices are lower there. First of all, the manufacturer sets the prices for the brand’s products. So, the price of Alpha Bio turnkey should be more or less the same. And dumping rates are rather alarming. Implantology is not an area where a Chinese knockoff can pass for an original. Whether the implant experience will be positive depends on many factors.

License

Usually all licenses, certificates and awards are proudly displayed in the lobby of the clinic. If they are not, it is better not to go to such a dentistry.

Guarantee

Some clinics like to hide behind a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer. This is not enough. It is important whether they give a guarantee on the work of the doctors. 80% of failed surgeries are due to doctor errors. If the clinic is willing to take responsibility, it means that it is confident in the professionalism of its implantologists.

Diagnostics

The approach – the fewer examinations, the better in implantation does not work. This is a surgical intervention with a delayed effect. Every little detail has to be calculated and taken into account. There are contraindications to implant placement. Sometimes it is better to postpone the operation because of inflammatory processes or exacerbation of chronic diseases. The doctor must take into account physiological conditions. For example, osteoporosis, menopause in women.

From this depends on the choice of implant, treatment plan, implantation method.

Computed tomography

No panoramic image can show the full volume and condition of the jawbone. This also determines which implant and which protocol is best to use. A CT scan helps to select the exact location of the post and thus reduce the risk of errors and complications. A CT scan reveals all the features of the jaw structure.

Alternatives

Any purchase means a certain budget. Implants are no exception. If you are offered, moreover, imposed the only option – this is a reason to think. Maybe the doctor does not know how to install other implants or you are simply being “tricked” for money. In any case, the choice of product should be justified and clear.

Cost of treatment

The price of an implant is not the same as the cost of the entire treatment, so it is better to know what is included. Turnkey options make it easier to calculate, but even here it is worth clarifying what the clinic puts into this concept.

Qualifications of doctors

Find out if the doctor is certified to work with a certain brand. How many operations he has already performed, how many of them were successful. Is there evidence that the implantologist improves his qualifications – takes courses, participates in symposiums.

Technical base

A clinic that has its own dental laboratory does the work faster and of higher quality. The waiting period is shortened, as the orders are only “their own”. Technicians have more experience, because they are constantly working with certain implant lines.
