Below is an educational, technical answer to a question many patients and clinicians ask. The DENTURA system from INVAMED groups the implant fixtures, prosthetic abutments, and surgical instrumentation intended for placing and restoring these implants. 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
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. The clinical foundation of implant dentistry is osseointegration, the biological process in which living bone grows into direct contact with the implant surface, anchoring it over time. 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.
What is the success rate of dental implants?
Published figures for dental implant success are commonly cited in a high range, often around 95 to 98 percent in the literature. For its DENTURA implants specifically, INVAMED reports osseointegration rates exceeding 95% at 5 years. Such figures describe outcomes in studied populations and depend on patient selection, site, and technique. They should be read as reported performance rather than a guarantee for any individual case.
What This Means in Practice
Manufacturer figures such as osseointegration rates exceeding 95% at 5 years describe studied performance, not individual guarantees. DENTURA components are intended for use by trained dental clinicians following the applicable technique and IFU. Cost and treatment packages are set by the providing clinic and depend on many case-specific factors rather than the device alone.
Key Considerations
- Cost and treatment packages are set by the providing clinic and depend on many case-specific factors rather than the device alone.
- Adequate bone volume and quality at the implant site are central to planning, and may prompt consideration of grafting as judged by the clinician.
- Osseointegration underpins implant stability, and the healing interval before loading is determined case by case.
Frequently Asked Questions
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.
How much will dental implant treatment cost me?
Cost depends on many case-specific factors such as the number of implants, any additional procedures, and the provider; pricing is set by the treating clinic, not the device, and should be discussed with them directly.
What is the INVAMED dental implant system called?
INVAMED's dental line is the DENTURA system, comprising the DENTURA Dental Implants, the DENTURA Dental Abutment, and the DENTURA Dental Surgical Kit.

Clinical and Technical Context
Manufacturer figures such as osseointegration rates exceeding 95% at 5 years describe studied performance, not individual guarantees. How the kit is used within a procedure is directed by the trained clinician following the applicable technique and IFU. 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. Whether immediate or delayed loading is appropriate is determined by the treating clinician, not by the device alone. DENTURA components are intended for use by trained dental clinicians following the applicable technique and IFU. Adequate bone volume and quality at the implant site are central to planning, and may prompt consideration of grafting as judged by the clinician. Titanium is widely used because it is biocompatible and can integrate with bone; surface treatments are designed to encourage that integration further. Within the DENTURA system, the DENTURA Dental Abutment is intended to pair with the DENTURA implant body platform.
