Neodent® dental implant, a popular choice for quick treatments

Losing teeth no longer means waiting months to have a full set of teeth again. Advances in implantology technology now make it possible to carry out rapid treatments with stable and predictable results.

The Neodent® dental implant is one of the most frequently chosen options in cases requiring effective restoration, including for patients who want fixed teeth quickly, without compromising on safety or durability.

At DENT ESTET, Neodent implants are incorporated into personalised treatment plans, tailored to each patient, in accordance with international clinical guidelines in implantology.
 

Neodent® is an international brand of dental implants, part of the Straumann® Group, one of the global leaders in implantology. Neodent® dental implant systems are developed on the basis of clinical research and modern titanium processing technologies, featuring specially treated surfaces designed to promote rapid osseointegration.

Neodent® implants are based on advanced surface treatment technologies (e.g. Neoporos or Acqua) that improve contact with the bone and accelerate biological integration. Clinical studies show success rates of 99.7% up to 5 years for Neodent implants, as well as high predictability in full-arch restorations, i.e. ‘Fixed Teeth in 24 Hours’ treatments.

Neodent systems are recognised for: 

• increased primary stability;
• adaptability to different bone types;
• simplified procedures.

In certain clinical situations, Neodent® implants can be used in immediate-loading dental implant procedures, which means that patients can have fixed teeth fitted quickly, sometimes even on the same day.

We invite you to find out more about the ‘Fixed Teeth in 24 Hours’ procedure.

Stages of treatment with Neodent® implants:

Consultation and imaging investigations (CBCT); Digital
planning; Dental implant
placement;
Fitting of the temporary prosthesis;
Healing/osseointegration period;
Fitting of the final prosthesis.

In the standard protocol, the full treatment takes 3–6 months, as the completion of the osseointegration process is awaited before the temporary prosthetic restoration is fixed.

In clinical cases where immediate loading is possible, including the ‘Fixed Teeth in a Day’ procedure, the temporary aesthetic and functional stage can be completed within 24–72 hours of implant placement.

Conditions for the rapid procedure

● High primary stability;
● Adequate bone volume;
● Absence of active infections;
● Good general health.

“Thanks to the advantages they offer, Neodent implants allow us to tackle complex cases, such as All-on-4 oral rehabilitation, in an efficient and safe manner. In suitable situations, we can provide our patients with fixed teeth quickly, without compromising the biological process of osseointegration,” explains Dr Vasile Brănici, Specialist in Dento-Alveolar Surgery and Endodontics, at DENT ESTET clinics.
 

The duration of dental implant treatment can vary from one patient to another, depending on a number of key factors.

Recovery after implantation and osseointegration

The osseointegration process is the period during which the bone biologically integrates with the implant. This is essential for long-term success.
Neodent implants are renowned for their specially treated surfaces, either through sandblasting (Neoporos) or a hydrophilic surface (Acqua). Thanks to these innovations, the new surfaces accelerate the process of bone formation around the implant, speeding up healing. 

General health

Systemic conditions, such as diabetes, as well as harmful habits (smoking) can affect the healing period following implant placement.

“Smoking reduces blood flow to the gums and bone, which can slow down healing and increase the risk of complications. Clinical studies clearly demonstrate that smoking has a direct negative impact on the success of dental implant treatment, regardless of the brand. The effects are evident both in the initial stages of treatment and in the long term,” says Dr Vasile Brănici.

Uncontrolled diabetes, in turn, affects the body’s ability to heal and can increase the risk of infection. 

Therefore, a full medical assessment is required prior to dental implant treatment. Managing any existing health issues and working closely with your GP significantly helps to reduce risks and achieve a predictable long-term outcome.

Bone quality and potential bone grafts

Thanks to innovations introduced by Neodent, these types of implants are also suitable where the bone is not of superior quality. Studies conducted by Straumann confirm a survival rate of 99.7% up to 5 years, including in complex reconstructions with limited bone.

There are situations where, if bone volume is insufficient, bone grafting may be performed. This procedure involves rebuilding or augmenting the bone prior to implant placement to ensure a solid and stable foundation.

In such cases, the duration of treatment is extended.

Implant type and technology used

The treated surfaces and the design of Neodent implants influence primary stability and the speed of integration.

“The speed of treatment must not, however, replace medical rigour. Correct assessment of the patient is the key to a rapid and predictable result,” states Dr Vasile Brănici.
 

● Immediate primary stability – The design of Neodent implants ensures a firm hold from the moment of insertion, providing a solid foundation for rapid loading.
● Quick and efficient procedure – Neodent implants are designed for ‘Fixed Teeth in 24 Hours’ procedures;
● Optimised biological integration – Thanks to their design and specially treated surfaces, Neodent implants ensure faster integration into the bone.
● Versatility – the conical design and progressive dynamic threads, in the case of the Neodent Helix GM® implant, ensure stability regardless of bone type
● Excellent value for money – Neodent dental implants are significantly cheaper than other premium implants, yet offer similar benefits.
