EVOLUCTION of science. the properties of the internal connection and the InHex® implant morphology, together with a correct surgical protocol followed by the clinical professional, allow the implant to be inserted up to the most coronal partof this treated area, achieving a larger contact surface and better and faster osseointegration.
SIMPLICITY of the restoration. Morse taper properties, along with double internal hex, make this connection one of he most reliable and solid of the market, achieving a zero microleage level between the implant and the abutment (Larrucea Verdugo, Carlos et al. “Microfiltración de la inter- fase pilar protésico-implantes con conexión interna y externa. estudio in vitro”. COIR, Vol. 25 · Issue nº9, September 2014), without losing flexibility in the rehabilitation with specific abutments for every single case.

RESPECT for the biological principles. Years of studies and clinical practice have proven the existence of physical principles such as the “Biological Width”, wich are to be respected at all costs. The InHex® implant with the Platform Switching feature fully observes these principles, maximising the success of the treatment.
AESTHETIC soft tissues. The platform bevel design of the implant, its 45º and rounded shape, and the machined surface on this zone, allow oerfect adherence to the perimplants soft tissues thus achieving perfect papillae presevation and aesthetic restoration.
STRENGTH of materials. The well-known design of the internal connection, together with the geometry of the implant body, allow the walls to be thicker thus making the implant more resistant to axial and paraxial occlusion forces.
SECURITY in the biomechanical response. Recent scientific studies have shown that coronal portion of the implant bears up to 80% of the occlusion forces. The Microthreads of thr InHex® implant evenly distribute this overload thus avoiding cortical bone resorption.
PREDICTABLE osseointegration. To obtain a greater contact surface with the bone, the implant surface is impacted at high pressure with particles of resorbable material without causing a weakening in the implant structure related to torsion and loads which the implant will be submitted to. In that way we obtain a texture surface which later will be double passivaled with acid to quarantee the total removal of all kind of waste product. In any case, these remainings are resorbable and would not alter the implant biocompatibility

STABILITY at insertion. The self-tapping InHex®, implant shape follows the same successful principles applied to Osseous® implant, guaranteeing a perfect primary stability with a proper load sharing thanks to its conical trunk and its V-shaped threads. Blanco, Juan et al. “Influence on early osseointegration of dental implants installed with two different drilling protocols: a histomorphometric study in rabbit”. COIR, Vol. 22 · Issue nº1, January 2011.
RELIABILITY of the treatments. All the features mentioned above make the InHex®implant one of the most suitable for those treatments in which the clinical professional considers an immediate loading procedure to be the most appropriate functional and aesthetic solution.
InHex Quattro Implant shares all InHex properties and also features:
An excessive tension can cause an irreversible damage in the bone tissue, necrosis and the lost of dental implant fixation to the bone.
The geometry of the implant Quattro distributes better the stresses on the bone allowing to work with lower compression ratios particularly in the coronal area, working with compression rates of 15 versus 34-45 used by the competitors, reducing in this way bone resorption risk.
Through a good insertion torque we can achieve a good primary stability. That is the reason the studied geometry of Quattro implant has been designed to achieve a high insertion torque. There were no significant differences between analyzed models (AB, NB y TC) .
The final positioning of the implant will improve its own survival possibilities and will facilitate the prosthesis placement, especially in multiple restorations. Therefore an insertion pair that increases progressively allows to control much better the insertion direction and depth.
With Implant Quattro, the insertion pair increases much more progressively than in the analyzed implants.
The tension distribution during insertion is more homogeneus than in other analyzed implants. In the analyzed implants the stress is found in the coronal area.
Implant Quattro is specially indicated for trajectory changes and optimal position adjustment particularly in soft bones.
The progressively increasing of the insertion pair will also facilitate this task.
The drilling sequence is defined to achieve the implant enters with optimal guide from the very first moment. The alveolus made allows the entrance of the implant apex reducing the risk of off-centers (apex 3.2 in alveolus 3.3). On the contrary alveolus made by other analyzed manufactures are between a 5% (apex 2.95 in alveolus 2.8) and a 25% (apex 3 in socket 2.4) lower than the apex of the implant, making the implant work long before to be placed inside the bone.
