External dental implants
The External dental implant, originally known as the Maestro, has performed successfully in every published study since its launch in 1997. The External implant has survival rates from 98.5% to 100% in studies of up to 1,400 implants and a follow up of 10 years.1-10 It has also been shown to achieve bone-to-implant contact levels of 80.6%.11 Clinicians confidently rely on the External implant to achieve consistent, reproducible results necessary to build a successful implantology practice.
