## Indications for use
The BTI Dental Implant System UnicCa® for oral implant surgery is to be used for the partial or total replacement of teeth in edentulate patients. Once attached to the bone, the implants act as an anchor for various fixed or removable prosthetic solutions that can be used to improve or restore a patient's mastication function. In the case of 5.5 – 6.5mm long UnicCa® implants should be used in a two-stage surgical procedure. These implants are indicated for delayed loading. These implants are indicated only for straight abutments and to support permanently fixed restorations. In the case of Tiny® 3.0 UnicCa® implants: These implants shall be used only to replace maxillary lateral incisors and mandibular lateral and central incisors. Immediate loading is recommended when there is good primary stability and an appropriate occlusal load.
