Miss implants (Israel): reviews from doctors

Reviews of Israeli MIS implants are often left by professionals - experienced implantologists and surgeons. The comments focus on technical issues, but the main idea is clear: the quality of MIS is worthy of offering implants to patients. And since today patients are interested in the features and types of implanted artificial roots, it is worth understanding the advantages and disadvantages of Israeli systems.

MIS dental implants are among the best in Israel

In Israel, reviews of MIS implants can be heard in any dental clinic. Almost always positive. And this is not surprising, because in terms of frequency of installation, Miss implants are ahead of well-known brands, including another Israeli brand – AlphaBio.

The name of the implants MIS is an abbreviation that stands for Medical Implant System. She came up with such a simple name when she started producing budget titanium dental implants in 1995. Over the years of operation, the manufacturer has been able to maintain an attractive price level for patients, but at the same time has advanced in the implementation of quality ideas. MIS are not yet ready to compete with premium brands, but in the economy segment the products confidently hold a leading position.

German Xive

occupy an intermediate position between premium and budget varieties, although some experts consider their cost to be overpriced, despite their high quality.

MIS Organization

The MIS organization was founded back in the nineties of the last century and since then, developing, the organization has achieved that it has become one of the largest, modern, high-tech companies that regularly introduce and apply the most advanced technologies in the field of dentistry.

Every year the organization produces about one and a half million implants, thanks to which MIS takes a leading position in the production of similar products. The current centers for the production of MIS implants are located in countries such as Germany, Israel and France, which means that you do not have to worry about the quality of such products.

In addition, for the production of all products, only modern technologies and models of the most advanced Swiss machines from TORNOS, known and widely used throughout the world, are used today. Also, it is worth noting that thanks to the multi-stage control system that absolutely all of the company’s products undergo, all kinds of low-quality products are excluded. Control is carried out through the use of special laser instrumentation with the highest accuracy.

Features and characteristics of MIS implants

MIS implants collect positive reviews from dentists for objective reasons. The main thing is the quality of Israeli models.

Implantologists call the MIS series one of the most advanced in terms of manufacturability. Each production stage is carried out flawlessly, which makes the implants excellent in all respects.

More often than other indicators for dental implants, osseointegration is assessed - primary stability, the rate of fusion of the artificial root with bone tissue, and reliability after installation. This characteristic is influenced by:

• Implant material.
• Type of surface treatment of the implanted rod.
• Shape and size of the pin.

Implant material MIS

All MIS dental implants are made of titanium alloy. It contains aluminum and vanadium additives. But this should not confuse patients, because:

1. Vanadium and aluminum increase the strength of the metal alloy.
2. Dental alloy Ti-6Al-4V is one of the most popular in the manufacture of implants.
3. The manufacturer guarantees that the surface of MIS implants is 99.8% pure titanium oxide.

Studies confirm the purity of titanium in dental implants, and reviews from dentists indicate the survival rate of the installed screws.

MIS implant surface type

The issue of surface treatment of a dental implant is one of the important ones. Porosity at the level of nanostructures guarantees the rapid formation of osteoblast cells and the growth of bone tissue. The better the surface, the faster the process of osseointegration and engraftment occurs.

Israeli MIS implants adhere to the “golden mean” position in this matter - they offer an ultra-hydrophilic receptive layer on each implanted product. This surface is called B+ and is created according to the following scheme:

• sandblasting and thorough etching with an acid mixture;
• chemical action to increase the amount of negatively charged phosphorus-containing molecules on the surface of the implant.

Such processing provides double benefits:

• Improved hydrophilicity is important in cases of immediate loading of the implant after installation, with one-stage implantation.
• Increased activity – stimulation of the process of “osteogenesis”, the development of bone tissue on the surface of the implant.

Premium implants

This category includes the most expensive, but also the highest quality designs. The implantation rate reaches 99%, complications after installation are extremely rare. The cost of premium implants (without a crown) starts from 35 thousand rubles.

Ankylos (Densply company, Germany)

The Ankylos rod is made of titanium. There are four standard sizes of implants, differing in length. Thanks to this, the doctor can select the rod of the required length depending on the clinical picture and the installation site.

Design features:

• The rod has a special progressive thread, which allows it to be successfully implanted even into weak gums. This thread provides high stability, almost eliminating the movement of the rod in the gum. Loading of the implant is allowed within 3-4 months after installation.
• Cone shape. The presence of a cone at the junction of the rod and the abutment virtually eliminates the possibility of microcracks appearing. Thanks to this, the tooth connections do not become loose over time.
• The absence of microcracks prevents leakage and the development of pathogenic microorganisms. Inflammation almost never occurs after prosthetics.
• The implant has a minimal loading effect on the bone tissue, which prevents its destruction. This is also facilitated by the smaller diameter of the abutment at the point of its connection with the rod, since a switching effect occurs.

Xive (Germany)

XiVE implants are reliable dental structures manufactured by the German company Dentsply Friadent. They appeared on the market about 10 years ago. Despite the brand’s youth, it has already entered the premium segment.

The model range includes:

• Xive S plus. Classic products for two-stage installation. Suitable for prosthetics in case of loss of individual teeth. Can be used to recreate abutment teeth for further attachment of bridges.
• Xive TG. Implants for one-stage installation using the piercing method. Suitable if no more than 3 months have passed since the loss of teeth.
• Xive 3.0. This model was developed for prosthetics of anterior teeth. Also, their installation is indicated for patients with loose, problematic bone tissue, or a wide alveolar ridge.

Due to the fact that XiVE systems have a thoughtful, unique design, they are in many ways superior to their analogues. Among their advantages:

• Special thread and cone-shaped rod. Thanks to this, the implant holds tightly even in loose bone tissue.
• Porous structure of the rod. Bone cells penetrate into it, providing high stability. This allows you to reduce the time until the second stage of prosthetics.
• Universal abutments. They can be used with implants of any diameter.

How to choose an implant brand?

Straumann (Switzerland)

One of the oldest and most famous brands on the market. Straumann implants are made from pure titanium without the addition of other metals. Titanium is a bioinert material, so the rod takes root quickly and well. This distinguishes Strauman products from analogues made from titanium-vanadium alloys, the implantation of which may be accompanied by undesirable reactions. Other benefits include:

• The presence of deep pores on the surface of the rod. Thanks to this treatment, high stability is ensured. The bone tissue does not just adhere to the implant. It grows into the deep pores of the shaft, creating a single complex. In terms of load capacity, it is no different from natural human teeth.
• Possibility of servicing implants while wearing. Individual elements can be easily replaced. Even with complex damage to an artificial tooth, there is no need to remove the implant.
• Straumann implants have no contraindications. They can be installed regardless of the condition and characteristics of the bone tissue, up to bone atrophy.

Astra Tech (Switzerland)

Astra Tech is another popular Swiss brand. Implants have good survival rates, but are also predictable. Operational characteristics are ensured by design features:

• The rod is made of modified titanium, which ensures rapid healing of bone tissue after surgery. The surface is additionally treated with fluorides, which stimulate regeneration.
• Micro thread on the neck. MicroThread microthread ensures a tight connection with the abutment, eliminating the appearance of microcracks, leaks, and the development of pathogenic microflora. The artificial tooth has a high load capacity corresponding to the physiology of the gum bone.
• Cone-shaped and the possibility of fixation below the level of the bone edge. This feature allows you to redistribute the load on the bone, moving it deeper into the tissue.
• The enlarged contact zone allows you to protect the bone in the area of ​​the neck of the rod.

Review of Straumann and Astra Tech implants

Nobel Biocare (Switzerland)

Some of the best premium implants. They are highly stable, take root well, and are predictable in installation. Suitable even in cases where it is necessary to carry out implantation immediately after tooth extraction. Nobel Biocare systems have a lifetime manufacturer's warranty.

Advantages:

• Good primary stabilization. Achieved thanks to the characteristics of the carving and special surface treatment. After installation of the implant, the bone tissue gradually becomes denser. This ensures a stable position even in soft or loose bone. They have proven themselves well when used in complex clinical cases.
• The neck is reverse-conical. This ensures not only the tightest possible pressing of the implant elements to each other and surrounding tissues, but also good aesthetic results.
• Achieving the correct position of the implant thanks to cutting grooves. During installation, the doctor can adjust the position of the rod and position it correctly in the tooth socket.
• Suitable for implantation into limited interdental space, for example, in the place of the lower incisor. In such cases, conventional implants cannot be used.

MIS dental implants: series features

Very often on forums and websites there are reviews of old lines of MIS (Israel) dental implants. There is no point in focusing on them. The product has already been discontinued and is not used in dentistry.

It is more interesting to study the company’s current offers and consider selection recommendations for specific clinical cases. Today the Medical Implant Technologies catalog includes:

• MIS C1 implant with conical connection. The design features platform switching to preserve the volume of gingival tissue, a hexagonal connection, double thread, and microrings on the neck of the implant. The complex of characteristics has a beneficial effect on the rate of osseointegration and guarantees rapid engraftment. The C1 line of implants is recommended for the classic two-stage implantation protocol.
• MIS V3 implant with conical connection. The series models have a complicated geometry, each element of which is aimed at accelerating osseointegration. The triangular neck, in the area of ​​which blood accumulates and an increased volume of platelets is formed, and the gaps on the sides of the neck to reduce compression and reduce the risk of atrophy in the future deserve attention. Implants of this type are often installed in the frontal area for aesthetic restorations.
• MIS SEVEN implant with internal hexagon. The series has been collecting only positive reviews from implantologists for more than 10 years. Models are constantly being improved. Today the list of their characteristics includes self-tapping double thread, anatomical imitation of the tooth root, switching platforms for preserving soft tissues. The design is universal and suitable for solving many clinical cases. Available in a wide range of sizes.
• Dental implants M4. The artificial roots of this line combine the advantages of both cylindrical and conical designs. In addition, the models have a self-tapping V-thread, which guarantees rigid fixation during implantation. The series is suitable for almost any implantation protocol.

Why are there negative reviews of Miss implants (Israel)

If you carefully study reviews of artificial MIS roots, you will notice aggressive and negative comments. However, the objective reasons for dissatisfaction are not indicated. There is a general background, but there are no specifics. This fact suggests that MIS implants are criticized unreasonably, especially since the reviews from dentists themselves are mostly good. And if there are comments of a skeptical tone, then they relate to budget implants in general.

Miss implants (Israel) are found almost everywhere in Moscow dental clinics - as an inexpensive alternative to premium brands. At the same time, doctors do not recommend that patients choose a prosthetic system on their own - insist, appeal to other people’s reviews. It is better to listen to the implantologist’s suggestions, discuss the preferred brands with him and settle on the series that is optimal for a specific clinical case.
