A NEW ADDITION
TO THE ANYRIDGE® FAMILY.

Despite its growing popularity amongst users and the continuing build up of clinical evidence showing the benefits of the AnyRidge® implants both for patients and for doctors, some clinicians still hesitate to turn to it. Habitual use of old-style implants, or standard techniques make them unwilling to try something so uniquely different. To enable all clinicians to adopt the “best implant in the world”, we have extended the AnyRidge® Family.

Incorporating key features of an AnyRidge® implant with changes to make this implant more widely used by dentists.
AnyRidge® Makes a Difference

Bone destroyer or Bone friendly implant?
The new BLUEDIAMOND IMPLANT® makes it possible for all clinicians to take the opportunity to offer their patients the advantages of AnyRidge®. Having a slightly different implant body shape and connection but incorporating many of the key features of the AnyRidge® implant, BLUEDIAMOND IMPLANT® offers a simple solution for clinicians wishing to offer the best to their patients without making big changes to their current surgical protocols.

KnifeThread ® guarantees sustained implant stability

Thanks to MegaGen’s unique KnifeThread® and super self-tapping design, better initial stability can be attained in any compromised bone situation. The design enables bone condensing, gentle ridge expansion, maximized compressive force resistance, and minimized shear force production.1

Two simple options for better initial stability

  • Regular Thread for hard bone Easy & simple placement
  • Deep Thread for soft/compromised bone Extended thread design provides stronger initial stability

Maximum preservation of cortical bone

No dependence on cortical bone for initial stability; decreased stress on cortical bone helps to prevent bone resorption after implantation.
Advanced coronal design allows maximum cortical bone preservation around implants. 6,7

* More cortical bone
= more soft tissue volume
= beautiful gingival line

• Human Biopsy (2.5 years after placement)
Sharp & high alveolar crest is maintained thanks to biologically-inspired implant design Maintenance of alveolar bone means peri-implant marginal gingiva shows almost no recession at 2.5 years follow-up, even with limited ridge width

- Strong
- Faster
- Safer

To promote secondary stability, all BLUEDIAMOND IMPLANT® have a special extra surface coating called Xpeed. This unique hydro-thermal incorporation of calcium ions has already been proven to activate osteoblasts and accelerate osseointegration, essential for secondary stability.4,5
Plus, Xpeed provides an important quality check to avoid any acid residue (BLUE means NO acid residue!)

Most importantly, the resulting initial stability of AnyRidge® implants is usually high, as measured by the Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) and insertion torque (IT). As a guide, an ISQ ≥ 60 and IT ≥ 45 N/cm are required for immediate functional loading.

In contrast to other implant systems, the ISQ values for AnyRidge® implants are maintained or increase over time, indicating fast osseointegration and effective secondary stability.

Higher compressive & fatigue strength with long-term biological stability

BLUEDIAMOND IMPLANT® fixtures are made of pure cold-worked medical-grade 4 titanium to ensure high compressive & fatigue strength for long-term biological stability.
The overall strength of the implant system has been improved by optimizing (i) the thickness and external shape of the fixture and abutment, (ii) the contact area between the fixture and the abutment, (iii) the abutment screw design and diameter, and (iv) the choice of titanium material.

Stronger than a strong implant
Clinical evidence over 20 years consistently supports the biocompatibility & long-term success of pure titanium implants. The morphology of the BLUEDIAMOND IMPLANT® in conjunction with Ti grade 4 has shown a higher compressive & fatigue strength than B implant system with Ti-alloy.

    8 possible prosthetic positions facilitate more precise positioning on angled abutments. BLUEDIAMOND IMPLANT® prosthetics are easily tightened when engaged with a CLICK!
  • Hermetic seal & long-term mechanical stability
    Helping to maintain healthy crestal bone
  • BLUEDIAMOND IMPLANT® connection & prosthetic option
    offers excellent solution for multi-unit restorations
Simple & intuitive drilling sequence

BLUEDIAMOND IMPLANT® fixtures achieve optimum initial stability when used with a guided drilling sequence.
Surgery is simplified with a clear drilling protocol based on fixture diameter and bone density.

① Check fixture diameter to be inserted, colored rings indicate line-up of drills suitable for each fixture diameter

② Drilling sequence for each bone type is identified by color D3: red / D2: yellow / D1: green /D4: drill to previous stage of D3

③ If bone density or initial stability is not good enough, place a deep thread fixture with the same diameter & length as a normal thread implant using the same drill sequenc

Functional abutment design for excellent soft tissue response

A better peri-implant biotype & better emergence profile are assured due to a double offset structure incorporating a thread-less collar on the fixture and S-line cuff design on the prosthetics

Broad prosthetic line-up from conventional to digital restorations

Every case, every shape, every size…everything has been considered to satisfy every clinical need
