USA — Dental products manufacturer ZimVie, formerly Zimmer Biomet, has launched the TSX dental implant in the U.S.

ZimVie designed its TSX implants for immediate extraction and loading protocols. They also offer placement predictability and primary stability in soft and dense bone.

The TSX implant is compatible with the Encode Emergence 3-in-1 healing abutment, impression coping, and scanbody system.

The company developed TSX to deliver peri-implant health, crestal bone maintenance, long-term osseointegration, and prosthetic stability.

According to a news release, the implant furthers ZimVie’s commitment to simplifying procedures and optimizing practice protocols.

ZimVie debuted the TSX implant last week at the American Academy of Periodontology’s annual meeting in Phoenix, Arizona.

Its launch follows the June launch of the T3 Pro tapered implant and Encode emergence healing support.

TSX utilizes a contemporary hybrid of ZimVie’s proprietary dual acid-etched (DAE) and MTX surface technologies.

It balances peri-implant health needs in the coronal and sub-coronal regions. The implant also features progressive threads and taper.

Minimally rough coronal surfaces like DAE may lower the risk of biofilm formation and peri-implantitis while offering osseointegration potential to maintain crestal bone, according to ZimVie.

This follows the patient’s prepared osteotomy and provides a precisely positioned, aesthetically restored implant with high primary stability. ZimVie designed the implant with compatibility with the

Dental implants market outlook

According to the most recent Global Market Insights Inc. study, the overall dental implants market was worth US$4 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow at a 7.6% CAGR through 2028.

Dental implants are surgically implanted medical devices that restore a person’s ability to chew or their appearance. These appliances may provide support for artificial teeth such as bridges, dentures, and crowns.

According to the World Health Organization, nearly 2 billion people worldwide suffer from permanent tooth caries, with 520 million children complaining about it.

Ongoing efforts in the dental implants market are expected to generate a profitable growth curve between 2022 and 2028.

Straumann Group, for example, announced a collaboration with Aspen Dental Management. The alliance would provide dental implant solutions, computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) options, and support to over 1,000 Aspen Dental Management, Inc (ADMI) and affiliated offices in 45 states across the United States.
