NobelActive™ Implant - a new direction for Implants
The self-condensing abilities of
NobelActive™
implants deliver advantages in all types of bone and in compromised situations, especially in softer bone.
NobelActive™
implants don't cut through bone like conventional implants, they gently press through it like a corkscrew.
This bone condensing capability delivers high initial stability. The narrow neck is designed to preserve marginal bone and promote long-lasting soft tissue stability.
The self-drilling ability of
NobelActive™
implants allows it to be inserted into sites prepared to a reduced depth. This is useful where sites are close to vital anatomical structures:
the mandibular nerve canal or the maxillary sinus, and nose cavity for instance. This means you can be confident of accurate placement while having a minimally invasive procedure.
The unique combination of design features of
NobelActive™
implants is derived from thorough investigation into the bio-mechanical dynamics of hard and soft tissues surrounding dental implants.
NobelActive™ offers unique advantages
- potentially fewer drilling protocol steps, depending on bone density and quantity
- minimal osteotomy with minor trauma to bone and surrounding tissues
- extremely high stability in fresh extraction sites and sites with thin sinus floors
- ability to change direction during surgery gives full flexibility for optimal placement
- a narrow neck designed to preserve marginal bone
- grooves on threads and scientifically proven TiUnite™ surface

NobelActive™ expanded indications
The unique self-drilling and bone-condensing capabilities of NobelActive™ facilitate placement in clinically demanding situations, by offering:
- excellent stabilization in soft bone – using gradual condensing of bone in all dimensions throughout the entire length of the implant, even with as little as 3 mm of bone at the neck of the implant
- adjustment to small changes for parallelism – using the self-drilling capacity it is possible to change direction of the implant during implant placement
- aimmediate placement in the esthetic region, even when buccal bone plate is very thin
- excellent stabilization in wide sockets - using minimal osteotomy, even with as little bone as 3 mm at the bottom of freshly extracted sockets
