Israel pays great attention to the development of health care in general and dentistry in particular. Israeli dental implants, related products, surgical kits are used in all developed countries. To achieve this success, Israeli companies invest in scientific and technological developments, constantly improving the production of implants in Israel.
Types of Israeli implants
In Russia, Israeli implants Alpha bio, MIS, Adin, Noris are in demand. The products of each brand have their own features.
MIS implants
The mission of this brand is to make implants installation easier and more affordable. There are 4 models in the MIS product line. Two of them, C-1 b V-3, are tapered, and MIS Seven and M-4 are hexagonal.
The company regularly publishes research results that confirm the primary stability and high biological integration of dental implants from Israel.
Výhody
The company invests a lot in the design of their implants. As a result, they produce products that provide:
- Primary stability. The geometry of MIS implants is the same as the tooth root. Combined with the unique threading, this ensures perfect initial anchorage.
- Preservation of bone mass. The design of the implants is based on the concept of platform switching. This approach reduces the risk of bacterial infiltration and ensures the preservation of soft tissue and bone.
- Simple and fast insertion. Simplicity while maintaining quality is the motto of the manufacturer. The availability of surgical kits, special design simplify the installation procedure, reducing the time that the patient spends in the doctor’s chair.
- Aesthetic appearance. Abutments with a concave profile increase the volume of soft tissue. The gold-colored post does not show through the gum.
- Bezpečnosť. Each implant is supplied with a disposable drill, of the appropriate diameter and length. This helps to place the implant quickly and without complications.
- Effective osseointegration. Special treatment increases the total surface area, enhances the bond between the implant and the bone.
All these factors allow MIS implants to compete with the products of other brands.
Noris implants
Noris Medical is a relatively new implant company, launched in 2009. It quickly took its place in the middle segment of the market. The company’s mission is to simplify the work of dentists and improve the quality of life of patients.
The company’s products are certified in Europe and the USA and meet all quality standards.
The lineup is represented by 3 series:
- Classic series
Tuff, Tuff Pro, Tuff TT, Onix and Cortical provide implant stability and accuracy of the process. They correspond to the anatomy of the bone tissue. They are used in posterior rows of teeth.
- Series for complex cases
PteryCore, PteryFit, Zigomatic are designed for placement in the lateral and wing-shaped region of the maxilla. Can be used for single-stage protocol and immediate loading. They combine the smooth surface of the neck and the RBM (rough) surface of the implant body.
- Monolithic implant series
MBI, MBI NC, Mono, Mono Bendable – the post and abutment are a single structure. They are installed in hard-to-reach, narrow places, in any type of bone. Designed for a one-stage protocol with immediate loading. Ideal for single restorations.
Features
All implants are equipped with aggressive threading that ensures excellent bone embedding. The Zigomatic zygomatic implants, ranging from 3 cm to 6 cm in length, are designed to solve the problems of people with bone atrophy. Placing implants of this length requires jewelry-like precision and can be dangerous for the patient. Most dental clinics prefer to use other ways to solve the problem. For example, ROOT basal implants can be placed when bone mass is low. At the same time, they are not as long and their placement is less risky.
The Noris RBM implant coating is a calcium phosphate sandblasting technology. It increases the total area of the implant, but does not have the increased hydrophilicity of the Swiss products.
Adin implants
For 27 years, the Israeli company Adin Dental Implant Systems has been providing dentists with innovative implant materials. The most popular model is the Touareg. Modifications are diverse and suitable for all clinical cases.
Innovative technologies
- CloseFit connection
A strong hexagonal connection that eliminates micro-movements between post and abutment. The double threads and tapered shape ensure precise insertion.
- OsteoFix surface
A surface treatment method that significantly reduces foreign particles. Does not require acid etching. The clean but rough titanium surface bonds firmly to the bone tissue, providing stability and rapid grafting.
Some models utilize the SLA surface. This type of surface is hydrophilic and quickly restores blood circulation, which accelerates osseointegration.
Alpha bio implants
A single prosthetic platform and osseointegration-enhancing surface have brought Alpha Bio implants to a global level.
Varieties
The company focuses on simplicity and ergonomics. It produces two product lines, with modifications for each clinical case.
- Systems with internal hexagon
Can be used with low bone mass. Allow directional changes during insertion. Provide good primary stability.
- Tapered hex systems
Suitable for single-stage implantation with immediate loading. They are used in complex cases. The tapered body and small diameter allow these implants to be placed in hard-to-reach, narrow areas.
Features
Alpha-bio Tec has developed a special coating for its implants – Nano Tec. It is created by treating titanium with aluminum oxide and then etching it with acid. The rough surface increases the contact area between the post and the bone. The acid treatment gets rid of impurities and creates micropores. This increases the hydrophilicity of the product and its implantability is accelerated.
It is difficult to say which Israeli implants are better. Reviews of satisfied patients have each brand. Each case should be approached individually and choose an implant that will solve a specific problem.
Disadvantages of Israeli dental implants
From the review, it is clear that all popular implants from Israel are made of pure medical titanium. In their manufacture, innovative technologies are used, new modifications are released to the market.
Strange as it may seem, but this is the main disadvantage. A wide range of implant systems and a variety of protocols make it difficult to choose. Some clinics believe that “if you know how to install one brand, you will be able to install others”. In reality, all implantations should be performed according to individual protocols. A clinic that works with multiple brands is spreading itself thin. It is better if implantologists thoroughly study the protocols of 2-3 types and practice them to the point of automatism.
Israel – Korea, whose implants are better
Israel started supplying implant products to the world market before Korea. On the other hand, Korean companies are known for their tendency to make breakthroughs in technology. They have gained a fifth of the market in a short period of time and are not going to give up their position.
Criterion
| Israel
| Korea |
material | Medical Titanium | Medical titanium |
Surface for better osseointegration | yes | yes |
Grafting percentage | >97 | >98 |
Warranty | indefinite | indefinite |
Long term projections, primary stability about the same. Korean brands are more popular in the US, while Israeli brands are more popular in Europe. In the global ranking, Korean implants are slightly ahead of Israeli implants.
When choosing Korean or Israeli implants, the best decision is to rely on the advice of a doctor. It is on his experience with this or that brand and skill that the success of the operation depends.
Switzerland – Israel, what to choose
Korean and Israeli implants are in the same price category. Swiss ones belong to the premium class. In part, the choice depends on the budget. But only partly.
Long-term predictions
It is important to realize that Swiss companies have been producing implants and related products for much longer. They invest a huge amount of money not only in developing new technologies, but also in researching the long-term use of their implants. Israeli brands do not have this opportunity simply because they have not been on the market that long. Only European companies have confirmed data on positive long-term predictions.
Innovation
For the same reason, Swiss companies are innovators, while Israeli companies are only following in the footsteps of major inventions. In addition, European companies are larger and can afford larger investments in research and development.
One example is the type of surface.
Add to this the famous Swiss quality and it becomes clear why Swiss brands are so expensive. But not all of them are.
Náklady
Trate AG has combined the quality of a premium brand with business segment prices. ROOTT implants embody all the achievements of European implantology – a hydrophilic surface, a design that provides primary stability, models capable of grafting in bone with low mass. At the same time, the prices are lower than other premium brands.
Affordability and competitiveness make Israeli brands in demand. Quality, innovative ideas, scientific evidence speak in favor of Switzerland.
The choice depends on the patient, his preferences, clinical case and budget.
Price of Israeli implants in Moscow
Original products are delivered to dental clinics through official representatives of the brand. Therefore, the prices for Israeli implants are approximately the same. If somewhere offer to install an implant at a super cheap price – this is a reason not to rejoice, but to think. The implants themselves are rarely counterfeited, but the accompanying products can be. The price goes down, but so does the accuracy of the installation and the interaction of all the parts.
By choosing a dentist with clear criteria, you automatically get a good specialist, original product and modern technical base.
