Clinical benefits
- Functionally unique cutting of the bone with immediate bite 1 and reduced insertion torque thanks to SpeedTip screw design
- Direct implantation without predrilling 2:
The triangular tip design permits simultaneous drilling, tapping and compression of the bone tissue during insertion for increased pull-out stability 3, 4 - Simplified screw pick-up and increased torque transmission due to patented self holding
