Tapered Screw-Vent Implant Celebrates 11 Years of Quality

Documented Clinical Outcomes

Implant features designed to achieve high primary stability combined with Zimmer’s proprietary implant-abutment connection 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.

Clinical flexibility

Each of Zimmer’s crestal configurations is designed for crestal bone and tissue maintenance.

Designed for primary stability

Primary stability achieved by Tapered Screw-Vent implants enables immediate placement and/or immediate loading in appropriately selected patients^2-6

The triple lead threads provide 3X more thread to bone engagement providing mechanical stability for immediate placements.

Proprietary Platform Plus^TM technology

The Platform Plus^TM difference: What no other implant can offer:

Zimmer’s proprietary friction-fit internal hex connection is a unique combination of designs that has been shown to create favorable conditions for bone level maintenance. ^7-8

Total system compatibility

All Tapered Screw-Vent implants are compatible with the Zimmer^® instrument kit system and prosthetics you know and trust.

Color-coded workflow designed to enhance efficiency and confidence during surgery
Simplified restorative instrumentation supports the entire TSV family of implants
Compatibility across systems minimizes stocking inventory
No new instrumentation or training required to introduce a new crestal option*
Crestal configurations and extensive restorative options support case versatility

*Applies to current TSV users proficient in all surgical/restorative protocols
