Roxolid for All

Straumann — a global leader in implant dentistry offering surgical, regeneration, restorative and digital solutions for the dental and lab business — is a pioneer of innovative technologies. We have won the confidence of our customers with this promise: A strong foundation of scientific and clinical evidence supporting the specialization, reliability and simplicity that define every Straumann solution.

As a pioneer of innovation, Straumann introduces a new implant line – Roxolid for All. Roxolid – the first titanium zirconium alloy designed specifically for implant dentistry – launched in 2009 has been implemented in practices all around the country. Initially designed to offer more confidence when placing small diameter implants and to help increase patient acceptance of implant treatment, the Roxolid Ø3.3 implants were just the beginning.

Roxolid for All is expanding to all diameters the advanced combination of the Roxolid material, the SLActive surface technology, and the NEW Loxim transfer piece for simplified implant handling. Loxim is a pre-mounted, self-retained transfer piece that offers clockwise and counter-clockwise rotations for one step implant insertion. With Loxim, the holding key is no longer required to remove the transfer piece, helping to make implant placement more efficient.

The Roxolid material and the SLActive surface technology each received the Frost & Sullivan Medical Device Technology of the Year Award. This award, which recognizes excellence in technological innovation, is one of the Best Practices Awards bestowed by Frost & Sullivan, the global growth consulting company. In 2005, the SLActive surface technology was noted as a ‘next generation dental implant surface technology’ and in 2009, the Roxolid material was noted as an ‘innovative high performance material for dental implants’. Now Straumann includes these two award winning technologies along with simplified handling with the introduction of Roxolid for All.

What does this mean for you? Roxolid for All with the Loxim transfer piece is designed to provide you with confidence in all cases, the flexibility of more treatment options, help increasing patient acceptance of implant treatment, improved osseointegration properties[1] and efficient implant placement through simplified handling. Three innovations. All diameters. Award winning technologies.

Today, life expectancy is longer. The scientific advancements in modern medicine along with an individual focus on good health and well-being all contribute to the potential of our life spans. It is important to place an implant you and your patients can trust – and depend on to last. Straumann invites you to try Roxolid for All.
