The implants are intended for both one- and two-stage surgical procedures in the following situations and with the following clinical protocols:
• Replacing missing teeth in single or multiple unit applications in the mandible or maxilla.
• Immediate placement in extraction sites and in situations with a partially or completely healed alveolar ridge.
• Especially indicated for use in soft bone applications where implants with other implant surface treatments may be less effective.
• Immediate and early loading for all indications, except in single tooth situations on implant shorter than 8 mm or in soft bone (type IV) where implant stability may be difficult to obtain and immediate loading may not be appropriate.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
