At Astra Tech Dental we have always had an holistic approach to implant dentistry. We base everything we do on research, science and documentation. This approach combined with constant strive to simplify products and procedures in order to make your daily work easier, has taken us to the number three position in the global dental implant market. 

Over the last 25 years we have delivered continuous evolution in implant dentistry. The journey started in 1985, with the first clinical study of implants with a conical connection, the Conical Seal Design™, and Connective Contour™ at the Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm. We were first to introduce minute threads, MicroThread™, on the implant neck ensuring positive biomechanical bone stimulation for maintained marginal bone levels and we pioneered the fluoride modified implant surface with a unique nanoscale topography, OsseoSpeed™. This combination of biological, biomechanical and biochemical principles is unique to our implant system and is recognized as the Astra Tech BioManagement Complex™. 

The freedom of unlimited possibilities is another mindset that is important to us. Atlantis™ is a perfect example – instead of limiting customers to our own implant system, we offer unique, biodesigned, patient-specific abutments to users of all major implant systems. 

Find out more about this and how it can benefit you and your patients at a Good Evening with Astra Tech. The evening will start off with a study on dental implants in extraction sockets, followed by a presentation on important factors for implant success, including supportive care and oral hygiene. We then move on to discuss the timing of implant loading for the single implant, and the evening will end with the evolution of clinical implant dentistry over the last 25 years. 

I look forward to seeing you at EAO in Glasgow.
