Laser-Lok® microchannels better science, better implants key clinical benefits
predictable esthetic results Laser-Lok has demonstrated 100% success rates over 3 years in the anterior esthetic zone1, the most challenging implant area. 100% success rate maintain crestal bone The Laser-Lok surface has proven its ability to reduce crestal bone loss by as much as 70% versus leading competitors.2 Over 3 years, crestal bone loss can be reduced to as little as 0.35mm.1 Laser-Lok traditional -0.35mm 97.2% Immediately loading implants requires predictability. Laser-Lok has demonstrated a success rate of 97.2% on average. Studies of immediate protocols have shown traditional surfaces experienced 61% more bone loss compared to Laser-Lok.3 Laser-Lok has also demonstrated higher bone to implant contact (BIC) compared to traditional surfaces4, resulting in 51% BIC in only 3 weeks.5 superior immediate loading results -1.96mm
reduced probing depths Increased probing depths have been associated with increased risk of peri-implant disease and implant failure.6 The Laser-Lok surface has been shown to reduce probing depths by up to 1.21mm versus leading competitors.2 Laser-Lok traditional Research has shown the presence of periodontal pathogens can increase the risk of peri-implantitis.7,8 In a recent study Laser-Lok was shown to reduce the number of periodontal pathogens by up to 77% compared to traditional surfaces.9 reduce the risk of peri-implantitis confidence across the arch Whether implants are being placed in the anterior, posterior, mandible or maxilla, Laser-Lok has shown increased success rates and improved crestal bone maintenance in both immediate and delayed protocols.3 Laser-Lok traditional
