Documented results, implant features designed to achieve high primary stability and Zimmer’s proprietary implant-abutment connection combine to deliver performance thousands count on, case after case.

Several prospective studies have cumulatively reported on 1,165 Tapered Screw-Vent Implants in 475 patients with the following results:

A cumulative survival rate of 99.05%^1-7 with mean implant survival rates ranging from 95.45% to 100.00%
Individual study mean bone level changes ranging from none¹ to -1.66.²

Results may vary depending on patient selection and clinician experience.
