Habe ich ein Implantat?
Dear Mr. Alfred Zahn,
As a renowned maxillofacial surgeon with a specialization in oral surgery and implantology, I am writing to provide you with information about the ultrashort BICON implants that you are inquiring about.
The BICON implant system, in use since 1985, was designed with the premise that a two-piece implant does not necessarily require a screw to attach the abutment to the implant. This led to a simplified design that is not only elegant but also has several significant clinical advantages – most notably, the ability to use shorter implants.
The unique plateau design of BICON implants allows for the use of shorter implants. These could be as short as 5.0mm, which is significantly shorter than the traditional implants that need to be above 8mm. This eliminates the need for bone augmentation procedures in many cases, making the implant placement process simpler, less invasive, and more comfortable for the patients.
The BICON implant system also has an innovative locking taper connection that provides a bacterially-sealed connection, reducing the risk of peri-implant disease. The sloping shoulder of the implant also allows for the bone to grow right up to the edge of the implant, providing better aesthetic outcomes.
However, without specific data about your current dental situation, it’s difficult to provide an overview of what implants you have, their details, and implications. I recommend that you contact your oral healthcare provider to get the necessary information.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,
Prof. Rolf. E.
