Straumann® Standard Plus 4 mm Short Implant

A new world of possibilities.

The Straumann® Standard Plus Short Implant, with a length of only 4 mm, is the shortest screw-type implant with internal connection on the market. It offers new, less invasive treatment options in cases with limited bone height where a bone reconstruction prior to implant treatment is not desired.6 Extra short drills, taps, and a drill stop system facilitate surgical procedures and enhance patient comfort. As a part of the Soft Tissue Level/Roxolid®/SLActive® implant portfolio, it includes all of the great features and benefits that have made the entire line so successful. Clinical studies7 show that short implants perform as well as longer implants – thanks to Straumann's advanced material and surface properties.

Biology

Mimics natural anatomy, respecting the biological distance in all dimensions. Optimized crestal bone preservation with Bone Control Design™.

Osseointegration

High predictability, shorter healing times and enhanced bone regeneration even at compromised sites with SLActive®.

Strength

Reduced invasiveness thanks to smaller implants with our high-performance material Roxolid®.

Efficiency

Simplified treatment and increased efficiency in daily practice.

Handling

Flexibility and reliability thanks to the synOcta® connection. Easier handling with the Loxim™ Transfer Piece. 

Hygiene

Greatly facilitated thanks to prosthetic margin at tissue level.

Guided Surgery

Also available as guided implants.

Esthetics

Built-in emergence profile facilitates soft tissue management.
