Bicon Simple Implant Dentistry Podcast

In this episode, Dr. Mauro Marincola provides a brief overview of SynthoGraft™ synthetic bone grafting material and its clinical applications.

In this episode, Dr. Bill Schaeffer of London, England discusses short implants, why they work, and the unique advantages they offer to the clinician. Dr. Schaeffer also conducts a review of literature and discusses his first-hand experiences with short implants.

This podcast episode provides an introduction to Bicon Short Implants, their history, the science behind their design, and how they can maximize implant placement possibilities and minimize the need for grafting procedures.

This episode offers an excellent introduction to Bicon Short Implants. Join Dr. Shadi Daher as he explains the primary reasons why one would use short implants and how they can help to avoid vital structures while still maintaining ideal implant trajectories. In this episode, Dr. Daher also demonstrates the two-stage surgical technique for the placement of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon Short Implant.

In this episode, Dr. Drauseo Speratti will be discussing more design features of the Bicon System, with a focus on the 1.5° locking taper. Bicon's 1.5° locking taper provides a stable and time-tested implant to abutment connection and a proven bacterial seal. By eliminating the micro-gap, the 1.5° locking taper prevents bacterial invasion of the implant-abutment junction and the resulting bone loss so prevalent with other implant designs.

This week, Dr. Drauseo Speratti will be discussing the design features of the Bicon System, with a focus on the sloping shoulder. The sloping shoulder offers significant benefits including better force distribution of the occlusal load to the entire body of the implant, dissipating the concentration of forces away from the neck of the implant. The sloping shoulder and other elements of the Bicon design work together to provide more room for bone and connective tissue that is necessary for beautiful and lasting aesthetics.

This introductory episode should give the viewer a good history of the Bicon implant design and highlight some of its unique benefits and capabilities — including short implants, superior aesthetics, and impressive bone maintenance.
