Machining dental implants: Precision for long-term implant solutions

The highest requirements in terms of material, processing and surface quality for safe and long-lasting dental implants.

Dental implants are usually made of titanium, as it has excellent biocompatibility and does not cause allergies or rejection reactions. Ceramic implants can also be an alternative for at-risk patients. 

The implants must be extremely stable and precisely manufactured to ensure rapid ingrowth into the jaw bone and a long service life.

Precise machining for long-lasting dental implants

State-of-the-art manufacturing technologies ensure maximum dimensional stability and excellent surface quality to enable optimal implantation.

Materials and production

Dental implants are made of high-quality materials that have been developed for optimal integration in the jaw bone.

  • Pure titanium and ceramic: Biocompatible materials for maximum stability and durability
  • Optimum thread geometry: A crucial prerequisite for secure anchoring
  • Perfect surface finish: Smooth, polished structures for rapid ingrowth

Machining technologies

The implants are machined using specific procedures to ensure precise geometry and surface quality.

  • Turning and short part turning: Customised production for exact implant geometries
  • Drilling: High-precision drilling for fixation holes
  • Milling and micro-milling: Perfect thread production for secure fixation
  • Thread whirling: Specialised production technology for stable anchoring 

Properties of dental implants

  • Biocompatible materials
    Made of titanium or ceramic for maximum compatibility and long-term stability.
     
  • Precise thread structure
    Optimised micro-threads ensure a secure hold and improved osseointegration.
     
  • High-quality surface processing
    Specially treated surfaces promote healing and minimise the risk of infection.
     
  • Maximum dimensional accuracy
    Precision-manufactured implants ensure exact fit and reliable long-term stability.

"Dental implant" processing

Specific turning and thread whirling processes for maximum precision

The production of dental implants requires precise geometries and optimised surface structures. Precise milling, turning and threading techniques ensure a perfect fit, secure osseointegration and long-term stability.
