The Co-Axis® Implant Solution

This innovative design from Southern Implants allows oral surgeons and other dental professionals to utilise existing bone while maintaining restorative platform at an angle that ensures an optimal aesthetic result.

Co-Axis® Enabled

Angled
prosthetic platform
correction

Decreases
Prosthetic Stack

Due to angle correction
within the implant,
decreases need
for angled abutments

Increased
Versatility

12°, 24°, 36° platform corrections allow optimal
use of available bone

Increased
Parallelism

Allows for simplified
restorations in
multi-implant cases

High Strength Titanium

Enables exceptional fatigue strength enabling Co-Axis® functionality

Decreased Retaining
Screw Fracture

Co-Axis® feature decreases stresses on retaining screw resulting in less prosthetic failures

Increase Patient Acceptance

Co-Axis® versatility leads to higher patient acceptance and less bone graft procedures

Reduced Need for
Bone Grafting

Saving costs
and increasing
patient acceptance

Technical Facts
  • Available with connection interfaces External Hex, Tri-Nex, Internal Octagon, Deep Conical and M-Series (Internal Hex)
  • 12°, 24° or 36° platform correction angle, dependent on range and diameter
  • Tapered body
  • Diameters ranging from 3.25 – 6.00 mm
  • Lengths ranging from 8.5 – 18 mm
  • Surface roughened by alumina-blasting and chemically conditioned, giving a moderately rough surface with 15 years evidence of clinical success
  • Available fully surface roughened or with MSC (Machined Surface Coronal) hybrid surface (External Hex & Provata Internal Hex)
Surgical Benefits
  • Ideal for immediate placement after extraction
  • Reduced need for bone grafting
  • Increased patient acceptance
  • Increased parallelism in multi-implant cases
  • Ability to use standard surgical protocol and instrumentation
Prosthetic Benefits
  • Optimised orientation allows for simplified restoration
  • Predictable aesthetics, especially in the anterior
