Immediate loading: a new implant technique with immediate loading and aesthetics: nobel active

The aim of this study is to evaluate the short time aesthetic and functional outcome of a new implant system, the Nobel Active. The Nobel Active features several innovations such as an extensive self-drilling capacity, axial and radial bone compression and an inward tapered collar allowing for marginal bone maintance an soft tissue stabilization. This design makes it possible to place the implant into narrower osteotomies, thus requiring less drilling, compared to conventional implants. The Nobel Active implants are available in two different prosthetic connections: Internal connection and external connection. The Nobel Active External connection is a 1.5 piece implant, with a primary abutment included with the implant. The Nobel Active internal connection is a two piece implant with a standard hexagonal internal connection. In this study we present a single tooth replacement with immediate loading of Nobel Active External connection.
