This article explains, in educational terms, dental implant procedure — how the technology works and where it fits. Dental implants are small titanium fixtures placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots, onto which a prosthetic tooth or bridge can later be attached. As a medical device manufacturer, INVAMED develops technologies in this area; the information here is educational and not medical advice.
Background: Dental Restoration with Osseointegrated Titanium Implants
Dental implants are small titanium fixtures placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots, onto which a prosthetic tooth or bridge can later be attached. A complete restoration generally involves three parts: the implant body placed in bone, an abutment that connects to it, and the final crown, bridge, or denture that a clinician restores on top. Titanium is widely used because it is biocompatible and can integrate with bone; surface treatments are designed to encourage that integration further.
The Dental Implant Procedure
The implant procedure typically begins with surgical placement of the titanium fixture into a prepared site in the jawbone. A healing period generally follows to allow osseointegration before the abutment and final restoration are added. The DENTURA Dental Surgical Kit provides the instrumentation intended to support site preparation and implant placement. The exact sequence, number of visits, and healing interval are planned individually by the treating clinician.
Design and Technical Notes
INVAMED organizes the DENTURA dental line around the components and processes involved in placing an osseointegrated implant and building a prosthesis on top of it. Manufacturer figures such as osseointegration rates exceeding 95% at 5 years describe studied performance, not individual guarantees. Component compatibility between the implant body and the DENTURA Dental Abutment platform should be confirmed against product documentation.
Key Considerations
- Cost and treatment packages are set by the providing clinic and depend on many case-specific factors rather than the device alone.
- Manufacturer figures such as osseointegration rates exceeding 95% at 5 years describe studied performance, not individual guarantees.
- Adequate bone volume and quality at the implant site are central to planning, and may prompt consideration of grafting as judged by the clinician.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are DENTURA implants made of?
DENTURA Dental Implants use a titanium implant body with an osseointegration-enhancing surface treatment, and are offered in multiple diameter and length options.
What about regulatory status and availability?
Device availability and regulatory status vary by country. Please contact INVAMED or your authorized local distributor for current regulatory information applicable to your region.
What osseointegration figures does INVAMED report?
INVAMED reports osseointegration rates exceeding 95% at 5 years for DENTURA implants; this describes studied performance and is not a guarantee for an individual.
About INVAMED
INVAMED is a medical device manufacturer headquartered in Ankara, Turkey, founded in 2005. INVAMED states it maintains a growing portfolio of international patents across its device range.
Clinical and Technical Context
The clinical relevance of any surface treatment is assessed within the whole treatment plan by the placing clinician. Whether a titanium implant is appropriate for a particular patient is a clinical decision that depends on bone volume, site, and overall assessment. The DENTURA Dental Abutment is the prosthetic connector within the DENTURA system, intended to work with the DENTURA implant platform. Cost and treatment packages are set by the providing clinic and depend on many case-specific factors rather than the device alone. Titanium is widely used because it is biocompatible and can integrate with bone; surface treatments are designed to encourage that integration further. The DENTURA system from INVAMED groups the implant fixtures, prosthetic abutments, and surgical instrumentation intended for placing and restoring these implants. INVAMED reports osseointegration rates exceeding 95% at 5 years for its DENTURA implants, a figure that describes studied performance rather than an individual guarantee. Osseointegration underpins implant stability, and the healing interval before loading is determined case by case.
