BioHorizons Tapered Short implants offer a solution for cases with limited vertical bone height, potentially expediting treatment by eliminating the need for bone grafting.¹ The Tapered Short implant design features an aggressive thread profile and tapered body for primary stability, even in compromised situations. A platform-switched, dual-affinity, Laser-Lok™ surface offers crestal bone retention and connective tissue attachment for flexible placement.
