Manufacturers of dental implants: overview of leading exporting countries


The ranking of the top 10 dental implants by manufacturer in 2021 will help you choose the best implants for installation. Our specialists will select and install the best implants in your specific clinical case.

There is currently a wide range of implant systems on the market, and many patients are faced with the difficult choice of finding the right system among the variety of products available. Often the determining factor is the cost of a dental product, which forces a person to take risks - to get a low-quality, unreliable and short-term result.

Elident Dentistry deals with both elite dental systems and more budget-friendly analogues that have identical quality and decent performance characteristics. In addition, our clinic uses modern high-precision technology, implements the latest technological solutions and employs specialists with extensive experience in the field of implantology, which provides an absolute guarantee of a prolonged and reliable result.

Next, we will try to figure out whether budget systems are really inferior to premium ones in terms of aesthetic and functional parameters, as well as duration of use. We hope that after reading the material below, you will be able to make the right choice and find a system that suits you.

Dental implant companies and manufacturing countries

Today, there are a number of manufacturing countries that occupy a prominent place on the implantology map. Dental implant companies located in these countries produce about 90% of the total number of implants on the market. If you go to the website of any dentistry, then in the “implantation” section you will probably see countries such as the USA, Switzerland, Germany, Israel and Korea. Most ordinary people do not know how this or that implant differs, but at the same time, any sane person realizes that a two- or three-fold difference in price should imply at least some differences. That is why the question: “Which brand of dental implants is better?” – asks most patients. It is difficult to answer this unequivocally, because each clinical case may have its own recommendations and limitations. Below is a rating of dental implants by manufacturers from different countries, which will help you understand the variety of systems, their advantages and disadvantages.

What you need to pay attention to first

When choosing a suitable orthopedic design, the following characteristics must be taken into account:

Material.


Titanium is mainly used for the manufacture of implants; it is characterized by high wear resistance, strength and reliability. Titanium roots do not cause allergies and have excellent biocompatibility with the body. Some companies produce systems with a major proportion of titanium and a small amount of impurities. This solution allows us to reduce the final cost of the product, but at the same time the rate of implant engraftment and its service life are reduced.

Manufacturer's reputation.

Implants manufactured by European countries and the USA are in particular demand in the dental market; implantologists prefer them for ease of use, high aesthetic performance and reliability of the design. Products of these brands have high quality standards and in almost 99% of cases successfully fuse with bone tissue.

Options.

At the preparatory stage, the implantologist selects a suitable model for the patient, taking into account the condition of the bone tissue. Modern orthopedic companies are developing implantation systems that include different series, differing in length and diameter.

Surface.

The stability of the implant and the speed of its osseointegration with bone tissue largely depend on the quality of the surface of the product. Many companies have developed their own unique coating, thanks to which the titanium root is reliably stabilized in the bone, and the risk of complications is reduced to zero.

An implantologist will help you make the right choice; based on the results of the examination, he will determine which orthopedic system is right for you. The specialist at the A-medic clinic takes into account the individual preferences of the patient, his financial capabilities and, of course, the complexity of the clinical case.

Swiss dental implants

Switzerland is often associated with the production of cheese and watches, but implantation can also be added here. It is this country that produces the highest quality, most expensive and well-known brands of implants. We are talking, first of all, about Nobel Biocare and Straumann. They have the highest survival rate (99% and above) and the best technology. It is Swiss implants that allow you to obtain ideal aesthetic and functional results even in the most difficult cases. The majority of clinicians in the world prefer to work with Swiss manufacturers, many of whom are real luminaries of implantology. By the way, to use the capabilities of these systems 100%, you need to be really high-level specialists. Now about the less pleasant moments. The cost of implants from Switzerland is the highest on the market. On average, for the installation of Nobel Biocare or Straumann implants alone, you will have to pay 45–50 thousand rubles. Add to this cost the cost of prosthetics, and you will get a sum close to 100 thousand.

American dental implants

The most popular American dental implants are Bicon, Biohorizon, as well as implants from the Denstply concern. If the first two systems can be considered local developments, then Dentsply is a slightly different story. A huge holding company, which has been selling dental equipment since its founding (and this is 1899), at some point wanted to enter the implantology industry. The company did not start from scratch and invest huge amounts of money in developing its own technologies, but simply gradually acquired several good European manufacturers with all the staff and developments. We are talking about Ankylos (Germany), Xive (Germany) and Astra Tech (Sweden). The most successful was the purchase of Astra Tech, which was in the top 3 and occupied about 30% of the implantology market. Despite the merger with Dentsply, all acquired companies retained their brand and continue to produce implants under it.

Americans are excellent businessmen who have taken marketing and PR in dentistry to a whole new level. At the same time, American dental implants also mean quality, high survival rate and reliability. On average, you will have to pay 30–35 thousand rubles for American-made implants (BioHorizons, Ankylos, Xive), and the elite Astra Tech will cost 40–45 thousand.

US made systems

America stands out in almost all areas, and implantology is no exception. Biohorizon and Bicon products are considered to be US developments. The rest of the American implants were developed by specialists from other countries. Today, the United States owns several of the largest European companies, including the Swedish Astra Tech. This allowed the Americans to take their rightful place in the world market. The systems are also expensive; of course, they are a little more affordable than Swiss ones, but not cheaper than German ones.

German dental implants

Germany is also one of the most famous manufacturers of dental implants. Having started their activity mainly in the 80s, German implant manufacturers have established themselves with excellent product quality and successful developments, which subsequently contributed to the merger with American concerns. Today Germany is represented by SHUTZ, Xive, Ankylos, Impro, and other lesser-known systems. All of them are close to the top segment, have a good line of implants and orthopedic solutions. Precision and scrupulousness are valued all over the world, which is why German dental implants have many fans among specialists.

German-made dental implants cost an average of 30–35 thousand rubles, which puts them on par with most American-made implants. Ankylos will cost a little more (about 40 thousand) - a system whose characteristics are closest to the luxury class.

AnyRidge - the best Korean implants

When studying the problem of which implants are best placed, one cannot fail to mention the AnyRidge system. Such dental implants are among the best products in the economy segment, as they have the following positive characteristics:

  • Advanced Xpeed coating. When developing such a coating, calcium ions are used, due to which it is possible to significantly accelerate the rate of implant integration;
  • Excellent strength indicators. The production process of the above dental systems involves pure titanium, which ensures their unsurpassed quality, excellent stabilization performance and the necessary compatibility with the body;
  • Reliable contact with the transition element. In this case, the possibility of loosening of the prosthetic devices and loosening of the fastening screw is eliminated, which is facilitated by the use of a five-degree connection;
  • Application of Knife Thread. The cone-shaped design allows for optimal chewing pressure;
  • Increased comfort during fixation. During surgery, only one drill is used, due to which it is possible to reduce the degree of tissue trauma and significantly reduce the cost of the dental restoration procedure;
  • Expanded surface. This ensures high-quality fixation of implants of various sizes. At the same time, there is no need to implement osteoplastic procedures;
  • Perfection of aesthetic parameters. They are famous for their impeccable aesthetics, corresponding to natural analogues;
  • Possibility of use in difficult cases. Universality of use is achieved thanks to a wide range of sizes of prosthetic devices.

Taking into account the above advantages, we can draw a clear conclusion to the question: “Which implants are better to install?” The manufacturer AnyRidge produces dental systems that are distinguished by their versatility in use, improved aesthetic characteristics and decent functional parameters.

Swedish implants Astra Tech

The key advantage of Astra Tech implants is their high degree of osseointegration. For this manufacturer, this parameter reaches almost 99%, which is facilitated by a clearly organized production process and the active use of modern technological solutions. Based on the nuances described above, the following conclusions can be drawn:

  • Astra Tech systems can be used for a wide variety of clinical situations;
  • They have an optimal and gentle effect on the jaw bone;
  • Impeccable aesthetics and excellent functional characteristics;
  • Prolonged result. Answering the question: “Which company’s implants are better?”, we can confidently give preference to Astra Tech systems. According to patients, their service life reaches 18-20 years, and with proper care they have a lifetime guarantee.

Considering various dental implants and trying to answer the question of which ones are better, we can conclude that Astra Tech designs are the best choice. They have practically no “cons”. But some specialists prefer another implantation system for the reason that they are more accustomed to working with it.

Zimmer Trabecular Implants

In order to clearly decide which implant is best to place, you should first of all pay attention to the technologies used in its manufacture. The Zimmer system is manufactured using a unique technique that creates a spongy surface. This allows for mutual integration of the implant and bone tissue in a shortened period of time.

Also, the competitive abilities of these structures include:

  • Expanded contact area with the jawbone;
  • There is the possibility of implantation even with significant bone tissue resorption;
  • Accelerated process of fixation of prosthetic devices, which is achieved due to a shortened period of osseointegration;
  • The use of a unique tantalum material, which is absolutely safe for the human body;
  • The presence of an improved connection between the structure and the transition element, which promotes extremely strong contact of the constituent components and eliminates the possibility of penetration of pathogenic microorganisms.

2. Nobel Biocare - excellent aesthetics with high stabilization

In the manufacture of Nobel Biocare systems, a vacuum casting method is used, which provides the necessary strength and, at the same time, allows for the creation of a lightweight design. In the manufacture of Nobel implants, improved technologies are used that contribute to an accelerated process of osseointegration, even when implementing a one-stage implantation technique. Thanks to the porous coating, the probability of rejection of the structure is equal to 0.7%.

In addition, the manufacturer Nobel Biocare pays close attention to its reputation: the entire production process is subject to strict quality control. The company provides a lifetime warranty on all manufactured products. In this case, each implant model is assigned its own serial number.

The only negative point when choosing Nobel systems is the impressive cost. But all costs are recouped due to the impeccable quality of the installed products and the lifetime period of their operation.

Straumann - the best implants in the world

When faced with the choice of which Swiss implants are better, every patient must understand that getting an ideal result when restoring missing teeth is possible only with the Strauman system. These dental implants have no analogues. They are considered completely safe for the human body, are famous for their unsurpassed quality and can be used for life. This is evidenced by both patients and practitioners.

In addition, Straumann provides a number of training programs for doctors. In turn, patients note the following positive aspects when using these dental implants:

  • Accelerated osseointegration. Through the use of innovative developments and active research activities, it is possible to achieve almost 100% survival rate;
  • The ability to obtain impeccable results even in the most complex clinical cases. Certain Straumann models can be fixed even in the absence of the required bone tissue dimensions, as well as in the presence of limiting factors: elevated glucose levels, inflammatory liver diseases and tobacco abuse;
  • Shortened procedure period. By giving preference to the Straumann system, you can always be sure that the time required for dental restoration will be minimal.

Due to close and direct cooperation with this Swiss manufacturer, we are ready to perform the implantation procedure at the lowest cost in the capital. Moreover, our dentistry regularly holds promotions, and regular visitors are provided with impressive discounts on products of this brand.

Korean dental implants

In the 90s, the field of medicine and dentistry became one of the priorities for the Korean economy, which allowed the country to become one of the leading suppliers of dental equipment. In the production of implants, Korea represents the budget category, and the most famous Korean dental implants are Osstem and Implantium. The advantages (besides the price) include a very wide range of models and good survival rate. They are quite popular on the Russian market, especially in the Far Eastern region of our country. However, some experts believe that these implants are not intended for all clinical cases and are inferior to top-end systems in terms of achieving an aesthetic result. Today, the price of Korean dental implants averages about 20 thousand rubles, which is quite good, considering their quite acceptable quality.

Israeli dental implants

Together with Korean implants, Israel occupies an economy class niche, and the Alpha Bio and MIS systems (especially the first) are very popular in Russia. This is not only due to price: the manufacturer invests significant sums in promoting its products. Israeli dental implants are very reliable, are well suited for restoring the chewing part of teeth and do not require the clinician to have any outstanding skills. In general, reviews of Israeli dental implants are very positive. However, there are also weak points.

Many clinicians note the lack of wide possibilities in prosthetics, which inevitably affects aesthetics.

The price of Israeli dental implants is very attractive. For 17–20 thousand, clinics offer installation of a titanium root, and turnkey implantation will cost an average of 40 thousand rubles. If lesser-known Israeli systems are used, the price will be even lower.

What is an implant and implantology?

Implantology is a fairly young area of ​​dentistry, which originated in the middle of the last century, as a result of the engraftment of titanium into bone tissue, better known as osseointegration.

This is interesting! The world's first operation to implant a titanium root was performed by the Swiss under the leadership of Professor Ingvar Brånemark.

The rapid development of this technique led to the fact that at the end of the 80s of the 20th century the whole world knew about it.

So, an implant is an artificial root consisting of titanium, which is screwed into the bone tissue. It quickly takes root in the place of the missing tooth due to the unique properties of the metal.

A tooth with an implanted root consists of three parts:

  • directly the implant itself;
  • crowns;
  • abutment.

It is worth noting that, if necessary, the abutment, which is a connecting element, can be changed, as well as the crown. Whereas the implant is screwed into the bone tissue forever, thus solving the problem of millions of people who suffer from missing teeth.

Russian dental implants

Dental implants are also produced in Russia, although few people know about it. For example, there are IRIS implants - an improved LIKO-M system, which appeared more than 20 years ago. IRIS is produced in Italy using Russian technology and has an international certificate of ISO 9001-2000.

The abbreviation IRIS stands for Innovative Russian Dental Implant System Liko-M. Implants are made from pure GRADE-4 titanium. Premium implants from Nobel Biocare, Astra Tech, Straumann are made from the same material.

The first implant was developed in 1995 by a team of scientists led by Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Sergei Yuryevich Ivanov. The scientific basis of the Iris Liko-M system is 55 dissertations defended under his leadership.

How is the price of implantation determined?

The final price of implant-supported prosthetics includes all treatment costs - the protocol used, the type of implantation system, the method of dentures, the material of the orthopedic structure, additional interventions (osteoplasty, sinus lift, gum surgery, etc.). The doctor decides which dental implant is best to place based on the clinical picture.

The network of RUTT clinics in Moscow uses a case pricing mechanism (turnkey). This includes all stages of treatment - from preparation of the oral cavity, to control examinations, production and installation of temporary dentures. The ROOTT implant system comes with a lifetime warranty .

How important is the manufacturer of a dental implant?

In conclusion, I would like to note that the brand certainly influences the cost of the implant, but it is naive to think that you are paying such large sums just for the name. Top implants offer the broadest possible options for both the patient and the clinician. None of these systems compromise between functionality and aesthetics: it allows you to solve the patient's problem and give him a beautiful smile, even in difficult clinical situations in which a budget system could not perform in the same way. However, economy class systems today are of very high quality and, for certain indications, can become a worthy alternative to more expensive analogues.
