SKY Implant system
Every patient has special needs and requirements, which have to be considered when
determining the appropriate treatment.
Younger patients want esthetic closure of gaps to retain their young look as long as
possible.
Older patients who are facing edentulousness still want to enjoy life and therefore
prefer immediate fixed restorations, allowing them to continue participating in their
social life and enjoy eating.
The quality of life of edentulous patients could be considerably increased with the
help of a firmly fixed prosthesis, especially regarding the quality of their nutrition and
the ability to make an untroubled appearance in public.
For us, implant prosthetics starts with the preservation of the hard and soft tissue.
By effectively fighting bacteria with the HELBO therapy, periodontally damaged teeth
can frequently be preserved, and, if this is not possible, the foundation can be laid for
reliable early implant placement.
...gapless...
Aesthetic restoration
Patients with good residual dentition,
for whom the implant restorations are
used to close gaps when there is loss of
a single tooth or edentulous spaces.
...tempting...
Stable teeth: immediately!
Patients who are about to lose their
teeth and who feel too young to wear
dentures, whether implant-supported
or not.
With the right materials for bone augmentation and the new absorbable membrane
angiopore, we can also provide you with a possibility to reconstruct bone defects
again.
Furthermore, it is possible to ensure that implants are positioned correctly from a
prosthetics point of view, using our prosthetics-oriented implant planning system
SKYplanX, so that the restoration can be carried out in a stable and predictable way.
The bredent group has developed various therapeutic concepts for implant prosthetics
in different groups with the philosophy of bringing together and bundling implant
technology and expertise in the dental laboratory, so you may offer the possibility of
optimum care to your patients.
These therapy concepts allow you to provide individual care to your patients and
thereby to rely on standardised procedures, so that a high-degree of cost-effectiveness
results, in order to minimise treatment times and costs and thus to do justice to the
expectations of your patients.
...in the thick of it...
Quality of life in old age
Edentulous patients with ill-fitting
den-tures, who have often resigned
themselves to their supposed fate, are
given a new quality of life with an
implant-supported restoration – either
an economic hybrid prosthesis or an
expensive removable bridge.
Navigated implantation
The SKYplanX 3D planning system
offers new opportunities for carrying
out perfect planning on the PC and
then transferring the results reliably
and accurately into clinical practice.
Regeneration
Successful implantology begins with
the careful extraction of the teeth and
the augmentation of the bone:
• materials for bone stabilisation
• materials for repairing damaged
bone
• therapeutic concepts for controlling
inflammation

The SKY solutions
Bridges on atrophied and jaws with low height
The use of implants placed at an angle, narrow implants and
narrow abutments allows to make optimum use of local bone,
reduce the risk of implant placement and enable the fabrication
of favorably-priced high-quality fixed restorations on just a few
implants.
Removable restorations
Complicated bone augmentation measures can be avoided when
fixing prostheses using narrow implants or implants placed at
an angle, which securely fixes the prosthesis in the local bone.
Excellent posterior support provides a high level of wearing
com-fort.
Short implants
The implant neck design of the SKY classic implants (8 mm)
al-lows placement at the supracrestal level so that they can be used
in the same way as 6 mm implants.
Transversal/occlusal screw-retained bridges
In addition to the occlusal screw-retained bridges, there is also
the possibility of prefabricated transversal screw-retained
bridg-es, which can be bonded in the mouth in a way to eliminate
stress and secure passive-fit.
Individual White-Shade abutments with Off-Peak
character-istic
The use of SKY elegance abutments allows the quick and simple
fabrication of individual White-Shade abutments with proper
anatomical designs in the laboratory. The Off-Peak characteristic
enables insertion of these abutments immediately after implant
placement/exposure to that repeated traumatization of the soft
tissue can be avoided.
Narrow gaps
Narrow gaps can be closed in an esthetically appealing manner
using the new narrowSKY implants and corresponding SKY
es-thetic S and SKY elegance S abutments.
Highly esthetic ceramic restorations
Prefabricated, anatomically shaped ceramic abutments are
avail-able for highly esthetic restorations and inexpensive treatment
with implants. Special cases can be restored using
laboratory-fabricated individual abutments, which feature a titanium base.

Compared to conical connections with press fit,
the flat connection with protection against
ro-tations provides major advantages for prosthetic
restorations since the vertical height of the
abut-ments is defined, i.e. it is much easier and takes
less time
• to integrate the abutments
• to achieve „passive-fit“ for large-size supra-
structures
Thanks to the very long tube-in-tube connection
(3.5 mm), masticatory forces are directed from the
abutment into the implant in a perfect way:
• well-balanced distribution of forces between
the internal connection and the implant; hence
fracture of screws is avoided
• no notch stress
• no notch stress at the implant neck which may
cause fracture of the implant neck under
unfavorable conditions

Indication
Prosthetics for every implant position
The crest-like design of the SKY classic implant is particularly
suitable for trans-gingival healing, as both the epithelial tissue
and the connective tissue are optimally attached. The bone is
maintained to a high degree by the blasted and etched surface.
Through the trans-gingival positioning, this implant is also
excellently suitable for use as a short implant in combination
with other longer implants, which can also easily be placed at
bone level. In this way, it is now possible to anchor the 8 mm
SKY classic implants at a depth of 6 to 6.5 mm, so that major and
elaborate surgery can be avoided. These implants are available
with a diameter of 4.0 and 4.5 mm.
Furthermore, the new SKY classic implants simplify implant
insertion if the gingiva is only die-cut. In this case, the insertion
depth can be controlled more easily than when implants are
placed at bone level.
The classic SKY implant is ideal to avoid milling off bone in narrow or uneven ridges.
The machined section avoids accumu-lation of plaque to exposed implant necks.
In transgingival implant insertion, depth control is made easier.
Short implants in an interlocked construction, anchored 6.5 mm into the bone.
Supracrestale Position Short implants
In the case of isocrestal positioning of the implant, the shape of
the abutment gains particular importance, in order to achieve
optimum attachment of the soft tissue.
The SKY esthetic abutments offer the ideal prerequisite for this.
With the concave-convex hybrid form and the built-in platform
switch, the surgical need for greater clearance above the implant
is satisfied to achieve optimum attachment of the soft tissue,
on the one hand, and this form provides the dental technician
an optimum prerequisite to achieve optimal aesthetic results, on
the other. The shaping of the gingival proportions is performed
either using the SKY esthetic gingiva former or the SKY temp
abutment with a provisional restoration, or as an individual
gingiva former.
Both have the same diameter as the SKY implant platform, so that
soft-tissue can neither get caught between the implant and the
augmentation while making impressions, nor when integrating
the abutments, and thus the precision of the impression and the
long-term stability of the implant-augmentation interface are
assured.
Moreover the SKY esthetic line offers precision-manufactured
impression abutments with corresponding diameters for open
and closed impressions. This is an impression system comprising
a titanium abutment and a plastic cap which has long and short
screws for the respective impressions and which exels thanks to
the precision during impression taking.
Indication
The crestally structured blueSKY implant is ideal
- for placing the implant flush with the bone
- for preserving the bone - for use in the augmented ridge - for improving the primary stability

SOLUTIONS
The success of individual and group prophylaxis throughout
the world will radically change the spectrum of treatment in
dentists’ practices in the coming years. Young patients, who
for various reasons suffer tooth loss, will mostly have healthy
adjacent teeth, so that a conventional bridge is not indicated for
ethical reasons.
Furthermore, the number of young patients in developed
countries will decrease with demographic change. In Germany,
the number of under-20 year olds will go down from 30 % in
1970 to 15 % in 2050.
With the increasing awareness for oral health, the demands
placed on aesthetic and functional results in dental care will
also increase. In this case, the provider is required to clarify and
take the wishes and fears of the patient into consideration in the
therapy plan before treatment begins, and to harmonise these
with the financial possibilities available.
With just a few components, the SKY implant system offers
a wide range of possibilities for the restoration of individual
teeth and small tooth-bonded gaps. These extend from titanium
abutments, to SKY esthetic abutments or even individual
abutments prepared in the dental laboratory so that you can
offer the right implant-supported solution for all needs.
Furthermore, the bredent group provides with the visio.lign
veneers a possibility to fabricate high-quality and aesthetic
restorations, using different kinds of crown base materials,
which are also relatively reasonably priced.

The ideal basis for temporary restorations.
The demands patients make on implant restorations are constantly increasing. Owing to obligations in their jobs and social lives, numerous patients want to reduce the period of having a gap in their dentition. Temporary restora-tions are an attractive alternative to achieve this goal. These plastic abutments
are also ideal for the modern concepts used in implantology, such as “progressive loading” or “immediate loading”.
Perfect contour of the gingiva thanks to three prefabricated designs. The extra-smooth surface avoids irritation of the gingiva. Simple and fast fabrication of temporaries.

SKY Titanium abutments
R R
Wide-based SKY titanium abutments are ideal for supra-crest implants, as they form a relatively wide crown base at the gingival emergence. With the three available angulations
• 0°
• 15°
• 25°
all relevant clinical restorations can be covered. This is also supported by the R-abutments, where the torque is turned 30°, so that 12 prosthetic positions are provided with inclined abutments.
Choosing the correctly orientated abutment has been simplified by means of the SKY abutment selection set (page 15).

With implants which are positioned at bone level, SKY esthetic abutments offer optimum conditions to achieve excellent aesthetics. Thanks to the platform switch and the concave-conveax hybrid form, the soft tissue has sufficient space for it to attach accordingly. The edge of the crown can be placed very deeply so that optimum red-white aesthetics can be achieved.

SKY elegance abutment –
White-Shade and Off-Peak
Off-Peak characteristic:
Maximum loading of the implant is reduced due to the
cushion-ing effects of the High Performance Polymer, BioHPP. The
abut-ment can be inserted as a temporary abutabut-ment immediately after
the implant has been inserted, and does not subsequently need
to be removed. The attached gingiva in the sulcus is not
dis-turbed – the optimum basis for long-term bone preservation.
The individual design options and white color of BioHPP provide
perfect preconditions for esthetic reconstructions. Using
con-ventional dental methods, esthetic, individual abutments can be
molded and pressed quickly and safely in the
for
2 press unit.
The low investment costs of the for 2 press unit and the familiar
processing steps enable the use in every laboratory.
Moreover, prefabricated abutments in the design of the SKY
es-thetic line will be available from autumn 2013. These abutments
can be easily modified by the user in accordance with the
gin-gival line.
All types of crown and bridge restorations can be placed on the
individual and the prefabricated abutments, from BioHPP
res-torations with veneers from the visio.lign veneering system to
ceramic bridges and crowns. The Off-Peack characteristics of
BioHPP enable the fabrication of reliable and durable
restora-tions for the entire range of indicarestora-tions mentioned above; such
restorations offer patients superior comfort since stress is
re-duced considerably during chewing.

Clinical experience with the SKY uni.fit abutment has shown that the bonded joint in the dental laboratory functions very well. Thus, the SKY zirconium abutments have been further developed according to the same concept.
• A prefabricated zirconium abutment is bonded to a titanium base • The form of the zirconium abutment is based on the SKY esthetic Line,
however, it has a vestibular sunken shoulder, in order to avoid extensive etching of the zirconium. Costly grinding of the zirconium is eliminated.
• The titanium bonding base is also available as a 30° swivelled Torx–R version
so that 12 positions are available for prosthetic restorations. The R-version is marked yellow.
• The bonding base has a reduced platform diameter so that a platform switch
results, whereby aesthetic results in narrow gaps and narrow implants are improved.
• Dentine materials are colored.
Important:
The SKY zirconium abutments must not be subjected to grinding as the minimum wall thickness is required in order to guarantee long-term stability.

Therapeutic concept... tempting...
Patients who are about to lose all their teeth are a highly
interesting customer group for any dental practice. As various
scientific studies have shown, these patients are very dissatisfied
with their oral health. They often have either a strongly reduced
residual dentition, or have severe periodontal damage to the
teeth.
Periodontosis is the new widespread disease with a dramatic
growth rate in the last few years, which mainly affects patients
in the 40 to 60-year old age group, who are in the prime of life.
The incidence of patients with strongly reduced residual dentition
is wide-spread. In Germany, the generation “50 plus” has only 4
to 5 teeth per jaw on average and is already edentulous at 64.
These patients are very afraid of losing all their teeth. On the one
hand, they still feel quite young, on the other hand, a removable
prosthesis means “You are old!”; for this reason, even
implant-supported removable prostheses do not meet all patient needs
– they want a snug-fitting restoration right from the start, if at
all possible.
With SKY fast
&
fixed, you are certain to be able to satisfy these
wishes. Extraction, implantation and provisional restoration with
an immediately stable bridge are performed in one day.
This means that patients will no longer have to be without any
teeth, even for just a day, and they will always have a secure
restoration in their mouth. Psychologically, this is very important.
With the provisional restoration, patients already feel a definite
improvement in their oral situation and are then often prepared
to spend more money for the definitive restoration. These
patients are also very pleased to further recommend this form of
treatment by word of mouth.
Through the reduced number of implants and the avoidance
of augmentation in conjunction with a high degree of
standardisation of procedures, both in dental practice and
laboratory, SKY fast
&
fixed is a therapy concept, which, on the
one hand, is financially accessible for very many patients and, on
the other hand, generates a high contribution per practice hour
for both practice and laboratory.

Allow yourself prosthetic freedom
The new SKY fast & fixed abutments with horizontal circumferential groove gives you all the options for your screw-retained prosthetic restoration:
• Occlusal or transversal screw retention with just one abutment. For example,
the long-term temporary restoration can firstly be screwed from the occlusal and then the definitive restoration from the transversal direction. The new SKY fast & fixed abutment offers you unlimited flexibility.
• Perfectly suited for the following substructure materials: titanium, NPM, gold,
zirconium oxide and BioHPP.
• Passive fit is always achieved, regardless of the material, as the substructure
is bonded in situ.
Self-centering transversal screw retention
Transversal screw retention is a bolting principle. The thread for the bolt screw is located in the bridge framework. The bolt screw (A) and the cylindrical surfaces (B and C) form a compact unit. The prosthetic coping is fixed by triple point attachment with the bolt screw (A) and the short cylindrical surfaces (B and C) to avoid tilting. At the same time, the short cylindrical surfaces ensure that the coping is self-centered (passive fit) when it is placed on. Thanks to the slightly inclined position of the bolt screw, the prosthetic coping is pressed on the abutment platform and gap formation is avoided when it is tightened.
Simple application
A click that can be easily heard and felt indicates reliable fit when the framework is attached or removed. Reliable retention thanks to passive fit.
The design enables the user to remove and reposition the restoration without removing the bolt screw from the framework, which significantly reduces the risk of swallowing the bolt screws. The design also guarantees fast and simple removal and insertion of the restoration.

Improved prosthetic copings
Within the scope of our ongoing market analysis, we have optimized the
prosthetic copings. In the cervical area they have a short cylindrical section with
an index to be used as the basis for the temporary restoration. When fabricating
the definitive restoration, the cylindrical section can be easily customized to achieve better aesthetic results.
Improved SKY fast & fixed laboratory analog
The SKY fast & fixed laboratory analog has the same coronal form as the SKY fast & fixed abutments, so that once again we have been able to significantly simplify impression and model manufacturing. The SKY fast & fixed laboratory analog can now set a bone more simply and securely, even when the impression material protrudes over the abutment margin.
New heights – straight abutments
The straight SKY fast & fixed abutments are now available in gingiva heights of 1, 2, and 4 mm. This enables dentists to fabricate restorations with a consistent quality and patients will receive top-quality restorations.

Study of 1,224 corpses > 60 years of age in Hamburg, Germany
One would actually expect that most people will become
increasingly dissatisfied with their oral situation with a
decreasing number of teeth and increasing age. This is not the
case, however, as has been demonstrated by the OHIP value,
whereby increasing satisfaction has been shown with increasing
age. This result is explained in the scientific literature by the
fact that in addition to becoming gradually accustomed to an
inadequate oral situation, resignation also occurs to a large
degree, as dental measures often only have a short-window of
success, as the strongly decreasing frequency of consultations to
dental practices has also confirmed. In addition, senior citizens
frequently have considerably more serious diseases to contend
with, such as e.g. cardiovascular disease, diabetes, etc. which is
highlighted by the increased frequency of visits to the doctor.
A study of oral health by Dr. Saal in Hamburg on 1,024 corpses
at the crematorium brought the alarming result that only 37%
of the deceased possessed a good oral state of health, but that
63% had died with a poor or even desolate state of restorations.
Incidentally, only 1.3% of the dead persons had implants.
The prosthesis could, however, be stabilised and fixed in older
edentulous patients by a few implants and the corresponding
retaining elements, such as e.g. locator, stud-head or bar. In
patients, who have been edentulous for a longer time, a lot can
also be achieved using mini-implants without much surgical
effort.
The difficulty with these patients lies in addressing them. On
the one hand, they come more seldom to the practice and, on
the other hand, it is necessary to convince them that it still pays
for them to invest in their oral health and to bring them out
of their resignation. A lot can also be achieved by speaking to
both the children and the grandchildren. The positive effects on
the general state of health, which is brought about by better
nutrition and is made possible with a fixed prosthesis, should
be particularly emphasized. In this circle of customers, however,
recommendation plays a considerable role, as senior citizens like
to talk about their health. A successfully treated patient can lead
to many more new patients.
