Presentation of the system

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.

Stable teeth: immediately!

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.

Patients who are about to lose their
teeth and who feel too young to wear
dentures, whether implant-supported
or not.

SKY system

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.

Surgery

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.

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.

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

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.

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 comfort.

Short implants
The implant neck design of the SKY classic implants (8 mm) allows 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 bridges, which can be bonded in the mouth in a way to eliminate
stress and secure passive-fit.

SKY system

Individual White-Shade abutments with Off-Peak characteristic
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 esthetic S and SKY elegance S abutments.

Highly esthetic ceramic restorations
Prefabricated, anatomically shaped ceramic abutments are available for highly esthetic restorations and inexpensive treatment
with implants. Special cases can be restored using laboratoryfabricated individual abutments, which feature a titanium base.

Excellent hydrophilic properties
The hydrophilic properties of a surface are reliable scientific indicators
for the ability of bone apposition
to a surface. The hydrophilicity of the
blueSKY implant ensures that blood
will cover the entire implant surface
almost immediately after the first

Implant abutment connection
Long-term stable connection
Compared to conical connections with press fit,
the flat connection with protection against rotations provides major advantages for prosthetic
restorations since the vertical height of the abutments 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

14


If screws and screw joints are involved. The Torx® is the gold standard in mechanical engineering and the automotive industry
and in implant dentistry as well.
Torx®: has six large force transfer surfaces
• significantly higher torques for the same force applied
• easier insertion of the implant
• no damage to the internal geometry at a high torque

SKY classic neck design
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.

Indication
Short implants in an interlocked
construction, anchored 6.5 mm into
the bone.

The classic SKY implant is ideal to avoid
milling off bone in narrow or uneven
ridges.
The machined section avoids accumulation of plaque to exposed implant
necks.
In transgingival implant insertion, depth
control is made easier.
Supracrestale Position

16

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.

SKY System

narrowSKY / blueSKY neck design

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

Therapeutic concept… gapless…
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.

...gapless...

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.

The individual design options and white color of BioHPP provide
perfect preconditions for esthetic reconstructions. Using conventional 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 esthetic line will be available from autumn 2013. These abutments
can be easily modified by the user in accordance with the gingival line.
All types of crown and bridge restorations can be placed on the
individual and the prefabricated abutments, from BioHPP restorations 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 restorations for the entire range of indications mentioned above; such
restorations offer patients superior comfort since stress is reduced considerably during chewing.

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 implantsupported removable prostheses do not meet all patient needs
– they want a snug-fitting restoration right from the start, if at
all possible.

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.

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.

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.

B
A

C

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.

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.

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.

A typical application for SKY uni.cone is the combination with
SKY fast & fixed in the lower jaw. Implants placed at an angle
are attached to the normal SKY fast & fixed abutments and the

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.

...in the thick of it...
OHIP = Oral Health Impact Profile stands for: physical handicap,
psychological handicap (beauty), social handicap (high value - big
problem).

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.

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.

Age (years)

Quelle: Steele et al.: How do age and tooth loss affect oral health
impacts and quality of life? A study comparing two national
samples.

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.

In many cases the implants, particularly in the upper jaw, can only be placed

The torque ratchet in the SKY prosthetic case for practices ensures that
all prosthetic components of the SKY system can be tightened permanently and reliably. The case contains two screwdrivers - short and long for fixation of all abutments as well as the screwdriver for the SKY ball head
attachments. The SKY adapter, included in the assortment, is required for use
with the SKY Locator®screwdrivers and for transversal screw retention .

The long laboratory handle contained in the SKY prosthetic case for laboratories
enables perfect handling and use of the screws on the master models.
Appropriate latch-grip screwdrivers are securely held in the adapter for contraangles and can be exchanged easily. As a result, the SKY abutment screws of the
SKY Locator ® and the transversal screw can be easily fastened and unfastened.
The screwdriver for the SKY ball head attachment is located at the other end of

miniSKY Implant System

61

The solution for badly atrophied jaws and an improved quality of life
Quality of life in later years
Use miniSKY implants to ensure reliable fixation of the
denture and improve the quality of life of your older patients
who lost their teeth quite some time ago.
All clinical studies 1 and tests have shown that inadequate fit of
restorations reduces the quality of life of patients considerably.
Persons at the age of 70 or older have been edentulous
over numerous years and, as a result, the ridge has become very
narrow and placement of stan-dard implants always requires
complex surgical procedures, such as bone splinting, etc.
Moreover, frequently the general state of health of these patients
does not permit major surgical treatment. The diameter-reduced
miniSKY implants are perfectly suited for these patients since
they allow minimally invasive placement. In numerous cases
not more than a small incision to control the bone width is
required.
The soft line denture worn during the healing phase enables the
patient to enjoy enhanced retention of the denture.
At the end of treatment, the happy patient is able to eat, speak
and enjoy life without any limitations.

miniSKY
mini 1

mini 2

The use of diameter-reduced implants is strongly recommended
for certain indications.
With miniSKY we offer you an implant system that is perfectly
matched to these indications and results in better quality of life
for your patients with just a few components, a modern surface
and an advanced and simple prosthetic concept.
miniSKY can be used as a one-piece implant with ball head or as
a two-piece implant as well.
The mini2SKY offers a choice of Ø 2.8 and 3.2.

Temporary implant
Atraumatic insertion and permanent primary stability make the
miniSKY implants ideal for splinting the whiteSKY im-plants
during osseointegration to avoid any micromovement in free-end
situations. In most cases, our patients are willing to accept the
temporary titanium implant.
Splinting is done using composite layered on glass fiber bands
and can be compared to a plaster cast.

Once the impression material has cured, it is possible
to carefully remove the impression tray. The o-rings
remain in the impression. The torx of the mini1SKY
implants is clearly recognizable and aids repositioning of the laboratory analog.

When repositioning the implant analog (m1SKYXIA),
it is necessary to bear in mind that the torx geometry
in the impression material corresponds with the orientation of the torx from the implant analog.

The high level of primary stability of the miniSKY implants in all
bone qualities enables transgingival healing, which means that
a stressful second operation can be avoided and the gingiva is
less traumatized.
The mini²SKY gingiva former completely covers the high precision torx and supports and ideally molds the soft tissue.

The use of the slimline mini²SKY impression abutment enables
simple and fast impressions even of very narrow gaps. For the
impression of mini²SKY implants, the mini²SKY impression abutment, open tray, (m2SKYPA1) is screwed on the implants and the
impression is taken according to the standard procedure for the
open tray technique.
In order to produce the master model, the mini²SKY implant analog (m2SKYXIA) is screwed to the mini²SKY impression abutment
and the model is manufactured from super-hard stone.

Narrow jaws represent a challenge when fixing removable restorations in older, edentulous patients. These patients frequently
refuse augmentative measures, or their general state of health
requires a procedure that does not involve major surgery. The use
of miniSKY Locator® allows minimally invasive implant placement and healing without loading and insertion after osseointegration using the proven Locator®.
In combination with the blueSKY placed at an angle, SKY classic
posterior implants, and the SKY Locator® angled, it is possible to
fabricate implant-supported restorations which offer superior
comfort to patients.
The mini²SKY Locator® is available in heights of 2 mm and 4 mm
and provides special protection against rotation for simple placement of the mini²SKY Locator® on the external precision torx of
the mini²SKY implant to avoid screw loosening.
The appropriate retaining screw is used for fixation. This ensures
that the load is distributed via the precision torx in the implant
and the screw is protected from overloading. The original Locator® retention inserts 20° can be used for this procedure.

The miniSKY Locator® abutments are fixed to the implants using Images: m.c. Zahntechnik, Oldenburg (DE)
the miniSKY retaining screw. The prosthesis is then manufactured
using conventional dental procedures. The Locator® retention
elements up to 20° are used for retention.

Implant planning

Implant planning - safe and precise transfer
Reliable fixation of the scan and drilling templates in situ is a key
prerequisite for precise transfer of 3D implant planning from the
PC to the mouth of the patient.
Bone-supported drilling templates are expensive and cause major
trauma owing to extensive flap procedures.
Precision, in particular in the edentulous ridge, is considerably
limited when using mucosa-supported templates.

Everything you need
Implants
The mini1SKY implants of lengths 6 mm and 10 mm can be inserted firmly in any bone.
Surgery
The implants are inserted using the insertion instrument after
the cavity has been pre-drilled using the twist drill from the SKY
OP tray.
When making an impression, only the o-ring (SKY-OR55) is attached. The implant analog is pushed into the impression and the
model is manufactured.
Scan and drilling template
The planning matrix fixes the scan and drilling templates securely and precisely.
Temporary restoration
During the planning phase, the prosthesis in the lower jaw may
be further stabilized by using either the SKY precious metal matrix or the SKY o-ring. In the upper jaw, the prosthesis should
only be ground out and equipped with a soft relining.
