In-Kone® ST implants, the heart of the concept
The In-Kone® ST Implant Philosophy — Bone Level Revisited Approach
Two-piece implants featuring an internal conical connection and a subcrestal chamfered rough shoulder.
This specific positioning, combined with the “tulip-shaped” profile of the prosthetic components, enables the development of a progressive emergence profile for the future prosthesis.
These implants can be placed using either a one-stage or two-stage surgical protocol.
A wide range of healing abutments allows for the shaping of the emergence profile according to the patient’s gingival biotype and the diameter of the future tooth.
The internal cone includes an apically-positioned hexagon, enabling repositioning of the customized prosthetic components in the mouth after lab adjustment.
The anti-rotation of the final components, once in place, is ensured by a “Morse taper” effect resulting from the engagement of the 8° (2×4°) male-female conical interface.
Two Profiles for In-Kone® ST: UNIVERSAL & PRIMO
The In-Kone® ST, UNIVERSAL profile has a cylindro-conical shape. Its progressive double thread is designed to ensure both rapid implant insertion and primary stability, even in low-density bone. The self-cutting helical groove eliminates the need for prior tapping. The UNIVERSAL profile is especially recommended for immediate loading and post-extraction placement.
The SA2 surface treatment is achieved through sandblasting followed by acid etching.
The In-Kone® ST, PRIMO profile has a slightly conical shape. It features a single thread with consistent depth (a fine pitch of 0.8 mm), allowing for a more gradual insertion and better control over insertion speed and vertical positioning.
This implant is also self-tapping and particularly well-suited for dense bone. When used with the ULTIMATE drilling protocol, the In-Kone® ST PRIMO profile allows precise control over the vertical placement of the implant collar during insertion.
The SA2 surface treatment is achieved through sandblasting followed by double acid etching.
ULTIMATE Surgical Protocol
In-Kone® ST implants, whether UNIVERSAL or PRIMO profile, are placed using the ULTIMATE surgical kit.
The drilling protocol is shared across In-Kone® ST, In-Kone® WD, In-Kone® NR, and twinKon® implants.
