Alpha Bio implants: reviews from dentists and patients


Alpha Bio implants have been produced in Israel for more than twenty-five years. They are extremely popular and in great demand due to their high quality and affordable price. The manufacturer is, it has been in second place on the market for a long time and is popular both in Israel and around the world. It is important to note that, despite the huge demand on the world stage, the company does not stand still and continues to make developments.

Thanks to this article, you will be able to compare different types of implants, learn about their differences, pros and cons. You can also learn about the structure of implants, their features and the cost of their installation. This will help you make the right choice without overpayments.

Composition of Alpha-Bio implants

The company makes implants from an alloy that includes titanium, as well as aluminum and vanadium for longer service. Because the titanium base is diluted, the strength of the implants increases by 13% compared to iron posts. This is one of the most popular manufacturing materials. However, this alloy has a disadvantage: it slightly worsens the survival rate of the implant (it is about 98%).

The upper part of the implants is performed in a modern way: first of all, the surface undergoes a treatment process, after which the surface layer is removed using chemicals. Almost all modern implants have this type of surface.

The surface is porous, so it is easily fixed in the bone and combines well with the composition of the blood. However, the latest developments are not used in the manufacture of such a surface. They are used only on expensive implants: this promotes faster engraftment, reduces the risk of rejection, and reduces the waiting period before prosthetics.

Material and coating

Alpha bio implants are made of medical grade titanium. This is a durable and, most importantly, biocompatible metal. It provides structural strength. Nano Tec coating is responsible for its survival.

.It is created by a combination of aluminum oxide sandblasting and acid etching. The result is a surface that increases the absorption of blood protein and has high hydrophilic properties.

Characteristics of Alpha Bio implant models

Currently, Alpha-Bio Tec has 8 implants of different types:

  • NEO1;
  • SPI;
  • ISE;
  • DFI;
  • ATID;
  • NEO2;
  • NICE;
  • Arrow.

The first five options refer to implants with an internal hexagon, while the rest are a system in which there is also a conical type connection with six edges. This option is used if there is not enough bone for installation. Arrows are used for incisors on both the upper and lower jaws.

The shape of the implants is selected according to the characteristics of the jaw shape, which allows them to be installed even by people with a significant defect in the shape of the jaw. A correctly chosen form can reduce injuries to soft tissues, while reducing the healing time of the implant. Thanks to the hexagonal shape, the risk of food getting into the gaps or causing infection is reduced to a minimum. The average healing time for implants is 5 months.

NEO

This type of implant is a classic option for any type of bone. In its device, it has a main and 2 microthreads, which allows you to increase the area of ​​the implant that touches the bone. This significantly improves survival rate. Such implants allow them to be installed with less trauma to the bone, and therefore heal much faster. This type is used for classical implantation in two stages and is installed in bones of any size and density.

A significant advantage of this type of implant is the ability to implement highly aesthetic restorations on its surface.

SPI

This type of implant is called a flagship. This type is used mainly for soft bones. This implant is very small, so it screws in, allowing the bone tissue to compact around it, ensuring the stability of the implant for a long time. This allows these implants to be used for immediate prosthetics.

This type of implant is also used when space is critically limited: it requires only 2 mm of free space around the implant, separating it from your own tooth. Thanks to screwing, it can be used even in cases where there is very little bone tissue. The advantage is the ability to install the implant immediately, without additional preparation.

ICE

This type is suitable for implanting any type of bone tissue, i.e. is universal and can be used for all types of prosthetics anywhere. Thanks to its special design, this implant does not allow the gum to recede.

DFI

Such implants are also universal, but are more often used for dense bone tissue due to their screw shape. That is why they ensure strong stability of the implant during the operation and heal quickly.

ATID

These implants are suitable for the hardest bone tissues, which have few blood vessels, most often the lower jaw. A feature of this type of implant is the ability to evenly distribute large loads. The healing period for this type of implant is approximately 5 months.

NEO2

All NEO type implants are considered a new generation of implants due to their spiral shape, which allows them to be used with minimal free space. With their help, you can perform aesthetic prosthetics using CAD or CAM technologies.

NICE

This type of implant is distinguished by its thinness, so it is very convenient to use in narrow parts of the jaws. It is used in very confined spaces, most often near natural teeth or their roots.

The implant itself is a thin conical body with a sharply sharpened thread and a conical hexagonal connection.

Arrow

These implants are a system that includes two types: ARRP and ARRC.

ARRP is a one-piece implant with a removable abutment, used in cases where the jaw shape is very narrow. It is intended for implantation of incisors on both jaws. Such implants are an ideal option for instant prosthetics. ARRC is similar to the implant described above, its only difference is the absence of a removable upper part. This allows you to choose the right one for any type of prosthetics.

Review of the line and design solutions

"In harmony with nature!" - one of the main slogans of Alpha Bio, focusing on which the company conducts research activities and develops new solutions. The company has a patented NanoTec processing technology, and each Alpha Bio implant is made from biocompatible titanium. The essence of the NanoTec coating is the smallest pores and microtexture, which creates a rough surface of the implant and ensures optimal survival.

One of the main advantages of Alpha Bio is a wide range of implants of various shapes and sizes. Each series is marked with a letter index and has its own characteristics, clinical properties and purpose.

ATID.

Classic cylindrical implant with double thread. It is often installed in the chewing part of the jaw, has good fixation and response to mechanical loads.

SPI or Spiral.

This is a spiral-shaped implant with a self-tapping thread. It is used both for classical implantation and in situations of immediate loading (instant installation of an orthopedic structure after implantation).

DFI (Dual Fit).

A conical implant with a double thread that has good fusion properties with bone tissue.

These series are usually installed in most clinical cases, which do not imply any additional requirements for an artificial root.

Pros and cons of Alpha Bio implants

Despite the large number of advantages, implants belong to the economy class, so the latest developments are not used in their production.

Advantages of Alpa-bio implants

The implants are made of a reliable titanium alloy, which contains aluminum and vanadium. This fusion takes root in almost 100% of patients. Implants are distinguished by their high strength and longevity - more than 10 years. Their design is completely safe, installation takes little time with minimal damage, which makes the healing process very fast.

A significant advantage is the ability to install an implant immediately after removing your own tooth. This does not require additional installation of a titanium rod. Both one-stage and two-stage implantation can be performed. The shape and type of implant is selected individually, taking into account the shape of the jaw, bone density and volume. This allows implantation even with the thinnest bone tissue.

Due to the fact that the implants are made of titanium alloy, the risk of allergies is completely eliminated. All implants have a shape that is as close as possible to the original shape of the tooth, which makes the healing process with minimal trauma. The coating has a porous structure, which improves the stability of the implant and also speeds up the healing process - it happens quickly and allows you to install dentures in the shortest possible time. The pores also help the implant and bone tissue to grow together faster.

Cons of Alpha Bio

Despite the high strength of implants, due to the presence of aluminum and vanadium in the alloy, their survival rate slightly deteriorates (by 2-3%). Also, this type of surface does not have an ultra-hydrophilic coating, which is found in more expensive implants. Because of this, the survival process takes longer.

The versatility of Alpha Bio implants

Typically, dental clinics work with only a few implantation systems (one or two), since each of them requires large financial costs. Any of the systems requires certain expensive surgical instruments, orthopedic kits and much more. That is why surgeons often do not offer the best implantation option that suits the client based on his characteristics, but make a choice from the available options, because he is limited by the choice of implants with which he works.

It is worth highlighting that each implant is produced in a unique package. It is completely sealed and therefore protects the product from possible damage. Thanks to this packaging, the implant is installed immediately after opening it, without any contact with any surfaces.

Dental implantation with the Alpha Bio implant system

The implantation system includes only eight types of implants, with the help of which it is possible to carry out implantation for any structural features of the jaw and for any bone density.

There are implants that are used only for immediate prosthetics, while others are used for standard implantation in two stages. In addition, there are models that can improve the fixation of removable prostheses.

Among other things, there are types of implants that can be used to perform implantation in cases of significant bone deficiency. With their help, there is no need to build up additional bone tissue.

Alpha Bio implants are distinguished by their durability, are safe and have an aesthetic appearance. All types of implants have undergone numerous quality checks. Implants are distinguished by their strength, long service life (more than 10 years), exert little pressure on the jaw bone, and also have a thread with a self-tapping effect.

They are easy to install and provide primary stability. The company produces implants that are as close in shape as possible to the natural shape of the tooth - this makes the healing process faster and virtually painless, without adding unnecessary trauma. Another feature: you can chew with new dentures immediately after their installation, which is a definite plus.

A significant advantage is the conical shape: it promotes rapid healing of the implant and also reduces the amount of damage during installation. It requires a minimal amount of bone tissue without additional augmentation, which allows implants to be installed at very low bone density. Another advantage is that there is no need to prepare the jaw bed before installing the pin.

In Russia, these implants are quite popular, so you can find them by contacting almost any dentistry. The company itself also focuses on the Russian market, holding various master classes and seminars. Training courses for working with Alpha Bio products are also often organized.

Company philosophy

Implantation should be affordable and ergonomic - this is the brand’s motto. The Alfabio implant system is suitable for all clinical cases. High-quality, reliable, easy-to-use technologies are the company’s goal. This is achieved by a number of factors, one of which is the minimum number of components. One universal surgical kit is suitable for performing any procedure. At the same time, it has everything - from a basic set of tools to advanced products for complex cases. This greatly facilitates training and reduces the cost of work.

Cost of implants

  1. 1. When implanting several teeth. The installation cost for one implant is 20 thousand rubles. The price includes only the operation without a crown. Compared to other mid- and premium-class implants, this cost is very low. In the first case, the cost of one operation alone can be more than 70 thousand rubles.

Cost with consumables:

  • with a metal-ceramic crown - from 35 thousand rubles;
  • with ceramic zirconium - from 50 thousand rubles.
  1. 2. In case of complete absence of teeth. A jaw that is completely missing teeth is recommended to be implanted with a long-term fixed prosthesis, which contains four implants. The price of such prosthetics ranges from 150 thousand rubles to 180 thousand rubles.

These prices are very low, especially considering that the quality is in no way inferior to premium implants.

Service life and warranty

guarantees indefinite wearing of implants. In case of implant rejection, splitting or other damage, re-installation is performed. However, in this case, the claim must be submitted in writing, i.e. proof of guilt of the company that performed the implantation. Then re-implantation will be carried out at the expense of the company or doctor who installed the implant the first time.

A lifetime guarantee means that Alpha Bio implants are worn for life. This is a great advantage: you only need to perform one operation, which will last for a lifetime. However, it is important to consider that the service life depends not only on the quality of the implants and the installer, but also on the patient’s care for the prostheses. It is imperative to maintain thorough oral hygiene and undergo regular dental examinations.

Reviews

Since the Alpha Bio company is one of the most popular in the world for the production of implants, there are, accordingly, a lot of customers and reviews. As the main advantages, patients highlight the very fast and painless installation of implants - only 15 minutes. I am also delighted by the low price and excellent quality. After installing the implants, there is virtually no pain, and the dentures take root and feel like natural teeth. A large number of positive reviews from people who have problems: too little bone tissue, weak gums, soft bone tissue. However, Alpha Bio implants have a large selection of products for any occasion, so the installation was also quick and painless, without causing any complications both during and after the operation. In addition, these implants can be installed several at a time absolutely painlessly. Pain does not appear even after the anesthesia wears off.

However, as mentioned above, not only the implants play an important role, but also the doctor who installed them, as well as the care of the patient after installation.

Features of AnyOne

The material from which the implants are made is hypoallergenic and does not cause rejection. Development of the rod involves minimal doctor intervention during surgery. Since the installation protocol is simplified as much as possible, the possibility of doctor error is eliminated. The developers achieved this result thanks to the special thread of the rod and the ability to evenly distribute the load when chewing. This ensures the safety of tissues adjacent to the operation site.

The implant is absolutely sterile, which guarantees the impossibility of infection during the intervention.

In addition, AnyOne is relatively inexpensive. Manufacturers were able to reduce the cost by simplifying the implantation procedure and the presence of a plug in the kit (quite often, when purchasing an implant, the plug has to be purchased separately, which forces the patient to spend much more).
