The SLA surface is produced by a large grit sand-blasting process with corundum particles that leads to a macro roughness on the titanium surface. This is followed by a strong acid-etching bath with a HCl at elevated temperature for several minutes. This produces the fine 2–4 μm micro pits superimposed on the rough-blasted surface. The surface is not micro porous and therefore provides no enclosed volumes to reduce vulnerability to bacteria. The chemical composition of the SLA structure was found to be titanium oxide (TiO2) using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
This method analyses the first few atomic layers of the surface, and thus the chemical composition of the material which is in direct contact and interacts with tissue fluids and cells.
PLATFORM SWITCHING
Implant-abutment junction is placed closer to the center of the implant and away from implant-bone interface. Together with advantages of conical connection, crestal bone lose is a rare phenomenon in NTA implants.
NO-MOUNT SYSTEM
Surgery time has been shortened by removing the fixture mount from the package and by using a fixture driver for winch the mount is not necessary. However, fixture mounth can be provided separately according to the preference of the clinicians.
CONICAL CONNECTION
Our product has a conical connection that provides bacterial sealing, eliminating micro-movement and micro-leakage issues. In this way, bone structure is preserved and the loosening of the abutment screw is prevented. The inner hexagonal index ensures right and precise placement of the abutment.
