A distinctive feature of the hip stem of the AEON-System is its COVABOND silicated and silanated surface coating. This coating significantly improves the bond strength between cement and implant compared with uncoated implants. Proven features of familiar hip implant systems have been incorporated into the implant design of the AEON-System, making it the most innovative primary prostheses currently available. This system also provides you today with a solution engineered to meet the requirements of tomorrow; for example it addresses the problem of nickel allergy associated with metal implants.
BIOCOMPATIBLE MATERIAL
This is the optimal alternative for patients with allergy problems
Stability
LONG LIFE
"COVABOND" silanated and silicated surface coating
Chemical bond between implant and bone cement
Significant reduction in cement cracking
Tapered stem shape and implant collar provide stability against subsidence
Uniform cement mantle is present over the entire length of the implant
Flat hexagonal stem profile provides a high degree of rotational stability
Tapered stem shape and implant collar increase cement compression during implantation
Anatomic
SMOOTH STRESS TRANSFER
Tapered shape and rounded edges ensure harmonious stress transfer in the cement mantle
The stress-transferring structures of Shenton's line, the cortex of the femoral neck, and the calcar femorale are preserved
The physiologic, biomechanically ideal neck-stem angle ensures optimal stress transfer to the femur
A broad collar also guarantees optimal stress transfer
