CERALOG® Implant System – CERAMIC

EXCELLENCE

Zirconia implants - Innovative and Reliable

The demand for highly esthetic prosthetics is on the increase. There is a focus on ceramic implant solutions with high biocompatibility. The ivory colored two-piece CERALOG® Hexalobe implants offer an exceptionally high level of esthetic properties. This is a mature system that has been in clinical use for many years. The high tissue compatibility of zirconium dioxide is widely acclaimed.

The dual surface texture

The dual surface texture of CERALOG® is unique in that it combines two defined roughnesses on a single implant without the need for finishing. The enossal area of the implant body is equipped with a micro-roughness with an Ra of 1.6 μm to ensure targeted deposition of bone cells. The neck area of the implant has a lower degree of roughness with an Ra value of 0.5 μm, which optimizes soft tissue deposition.

The Y-TZP zirconia material

CERALOG® Implants consist of yttrium oxide stabilized tetragonal zirconium dioxide. They are produced by Ceramic Injection Molding (CIM). Here both the outer geometry as well as the surface structure are already created in a mold before the sintering and HIP process (HIP = Hot Isostatic Pressing). No abrasive treatment of the zirconia is necessary during this process. Only few companies worldwide are capable of mastering this high-tech manufacturing process.

100% Quality Control: Each implant is subjected to a thorough mechanical loading test and dimensional check in a controlled process before being packaged.

CERALOG® Hexalobe Implant

The two-piece ceramic implant – CERAMIC EXCELLENCE

The two-piece CERALOG® Hexalobe Implant enables reversible screw-retained prosthetic solutions that overcome the limitations of many previous ceramic systems. The two-part Hexalobe implant has been successfully used in the current configuration since early 2012.

Another specific feature is the material of the abutments. They are made of PEKK high-performance polymer, which behaves very similar to a tooth under load conditions and offers good sealing properties thanks to its flexibility. In terms of use, CERALOG® Implants are very similar to titanium implants.

The Hexalobe Implant-abutment connection

Perfect connection design for ceramic implants

Esthetics, quality of life and patient satisfaction are also based on the quality of the prosthetic elements. The perfect implant-abutment connection is of significant relevance for the long-term stable success of the restoration. The CERALOG® Hexalobe connection has been designed and perfected specifically for ceramic. Perfect transfer of higher forces as well as high rotational stability.

Advantages and benefits – ­implant-abutment connection

  • High level of user safety thanks to the connection design
  • High positioning precision due to minimal rotational freedom
  • Abutmentlar için karmaşık transfer anahtarı gerekmez
  • Ceramic-compatible force transfer when inserting the CERALOG® Hexalobe implant
